Peach Rosemary's second film, Aggression within Underestimation is a crime-thriller, short film, created by the 4x Award Winning Director, Producer, and Actress, Peach Rosemary (Underneath the Bodies).
After her tremendous success on her first film at 21 years old, Peach Rosemary, a year later, after her 22nd birthday, then decided to create THIS short film to bring awareness to sexual violence/ the topic of preventing human trafficking. It is important never to underestimate someone's power no matter what position you find yourself in. This is also the first time the award-winning director has taken on the role of 'Director of Photography' and 'Colorist'.
DIRECTOR STATEMENT IN REGARDS TO FILM: “This story was super important for me to get out of my chest as I found myself in these situations before. It is one of the hardest things to get out of, but this is for someone who has been put in my place before, someone who is healing over something like this or something just as bad, and for the audience that connects most to it. Even if it doesn’t have to do with human trafficking, or a crime, and it’s something different that happens in your life. You always have a voice, and you always have an opinion, and even if there’s people that downgrade you, and try to make you feel less humans, without emotion and completely disregarding them, those are the ones you keep distance from, just as we learn, with our characters, it’s something I am learning myself…. With this film being one of my hardest pieces, I thank my wonderful cast and crew for working so hard, I am so proud of it.”
