Daniela

Natalie Labarre, Hornet’s own 2D staff animator, directed this powerfully moving and relevant film in collaboration with the ‘me too’ movement and the Deutsch agency. This film was one of four PSAs released by the #MeToo movement, created by Tarana Burke in 2006 to support survivors and end sexual violence.

Through the message “We hear you. We see you. We believe you.,” the PSAs aim to rally survivors and supporters together in the fight to end sexual violence through testimonies from Terry Crews, Emily Waters, Daniela Contreras and an anonymous survivor.

Narrated by the actual survivors, the piece that Hornet created was Daniela Contreras’ painful and courageous story, brought to life through animation that illustrates the emotional journey from pain to healing to ultimately finding a purpose.  The PSAs debuted privately at the “The Inn House” in partnership with HBO at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival.
