Hairpin

About This Movie

Hairpin is an offbeat indie comedy that dives into the absurdity of office life. Directed by Laura Scrivano, it captures the mundane yet strangely competitive spirit of two corporate middle managers who escalate their desk-sharing spat into a full-blown war, all with the most mundane of office supplies. The film has this quirky, almost whimsical tone, with a slow burn that allows the tension to build naturally. The chemistry between the leads is awkward yet charming, and their unexpected relationship unfolds in a way that's both genuine and hilarious. There's a distinct lack of flashy effects, relying instead on clever writing and relatable performances to draw you in. It’s a unique exploration of workplace dynamics and personal connections in the most unlikely of settings.
