This trailer promotes Hula Girl, a documentary short directed by Amy Hill and Chris Riess, aka the duo known as Riess/Hill who helm commercials and branded content via production house Wondros.
Hula Girl is the untold story behind one of the biggest fads in modern American history, the Hula Hoop. At 94 years of age, Joan Anderson has waited 60 years to prove that “a gentleman’s handshake ” was hardly a deal and it’s time to set the record straight.
Hula Girl will make its world premiere at the upcoming Tribeca Film Festival, part of the fest’s Bold Moves shorts program in which risk takers tell true tales.
