The Boyfriend Sweater
A short film by Nikki Mezaros based on the age old curse known by all knitters - the curse of the boyfriend sweater.
Production Design and Knitwear by Ellie O’Hern
A textile artist, lukewarm about the girl she's been dating, learns about "the sweater hex"- the belief that if you make someone a sweater, it'll end your relationship- and decides to knit her a sweater instead of simply telling her how she feels.
Premiered at the Bushwick Film Festival 2024
