Synopsis
#Ghostwriters is the first ever scripted series specifically for InstaStory making it truly interactive. It centers on women of color and what work is really like for them as they navigate the “isms” of a modern office. Starring a racially diverse and intersex cast the story focuses on Jay, a writer whose Pulitzer Prize was famously revoked and must now work at WOD INC., a place where writes go to die. In order to cope with her fall from grace and creepy boss, her colleagues create a secret app detailing the atrocities until one day their stories get leaked on a viral Instagram page.
Sebastien is a director and writer of Filipino and Swiss descent based in LA. Coming from a multi-cultural upbringing, his experiences growing up around the world play heavily in his work with characters who continually question and explore their heritage and identities. He is currently developing a feature road-trip dramedy about a mixed race immigrant who chases his ailing Swiss grandfather through the Alps, a pre-hispanic feature based in the Philippines and a teenage coming of age piece set in late 90’s Bangkok. He recently directed and produced a comedy series for @Instagram called #Ghostwriters which you can watch now via stories and IGTV on @Ghostwriterstv
