When directing duo Jason & Blue initially met Chelli Look at her studio showcasing her latest handbag collection, they expected to create a simple maker documentary. What they discovered instead was a profound story of resilience, as Chelli channeled her grief into artistic expression while donating portions of her proceeds and time to a domestic violence shelter.
