Rubber Gloves
Gen’s after school cleaning job routine was; clean the house, leave. However, when she bumps into a speaker that blasts a funky song and she finds herself dancing, the thrill of the change exciting and tempting her to do more.
From parading in suits to trying on makeup, swimming topless in the pool and smoking hidden cigarettes, Gen just can’t get enough of feeling free and rebellious. However, when the owner of the house, Kevin, catches her half naked and dancing, their first meeting will reveal supressed truths and desires about themselves creating a new friendship.
A coming of age short film that will challenge the perception of youth, rebellion and privacy; Rubber Gloves will entice all and appeal to those who crave freedom.

After discovering his school couldn't teach him anything more about filmmaking, Blake went and studied his Diploma in Film and Television. During his studies he also began creating his web series 'Monday Night Menace', which he received $5,000 funding for. To support his journey as a young filmmaker, Blake relocated to Melbourne and began working in corporate and music videos. With this support, he continues to explore the craft of filmmaking with dedication, passion and a clear vision.
