When the manager offers him an ultimatum in the name of ‘tradition’ and ‘professionalism’ to cut his hair, Keith must decide whether losing a crucial part of his identity is worth the hypocrisy of the workplace. As he navigates his dilemma, he finds the hypocrisy weaving into his passion for art as he prepares for a lucrative gallery showing of his work. Shot on 16mm, ‘CROWN’ follows Keith exploring a world that only embraces the art, but not the artist.
