Brillia SHORTSHORTS THEATER, a lifestyle web media that distributes short films for free, presents its Friday series "Weekend Short Films" introducing the latest short films. This week's feature is "VIRGIN EYES," a short film starring Gigi Hadid, a popular young model who has appeared on the covers of numerous major fashion magazines and is a hot topic across the United States in her personal life.


《Synopsis》
Andrea comes to a resort hotel to visit her father, a therapist. She tries to spend some time with him for the first time in a while, but something seems off about him. Andrea soon discovers his secret.

With a limited budget, the director was plagued by problems with locations and casting. Unable to find a filming location or a leading actress, the project hit a wall. Just then, a stroke of luck appeared. As the car pulled over at a traffic light, the director's eyes were glued to a teenage girl sitting in the passenger seat. The producer sitting next to him had the same reaction, and the two exchanged glances, nodded, and shouted at the girl: "Come audition tomorrow!"

That girl was none other than Gigi Hadid, now one of the world's top models. Although she was active as a child model at the time, this was her acting debut. When the duo were struggling to find a filming location, Gigi even offered her father's house as a shooting location.
