Misfits

"WE DON'T USE THE WORD UGLY AROUND HERE, WE USE THE WORDS MISFIT"

There are the words of Del, perhaps the world's most famous 'ugly model' and Founder of Berlin's Misfit Models.

This immersive observational documentary takes the viewer behind the scenes of the most unusual model agency in the world, challenging the concept of beauty and what it takes to be a 'model'.

Director Statement

This story started for me over 20 years ago when I first met Del the hero of the story. He was living in a garage, working as a motorcycle courier, his only ambition was to own more motorbikes. He now runs his own model agency, perhaps the most unusual in the world. This is his story.

I have been wanting to tell this story for two decades. Using 360 video I captured it in one day.
