THE WORLD’S OLDEST MIME: A LIFE IN THREE ACTS

Client: The New Yorker & Con Nast

Richmond Shepard is the world’s oldest mime. This short doc asks what can be gleaned about the way we interact with each other every day — in ways that are so subtle and of which we are often not aware — from a man who has devoted his life to the art of nonverbal communication?

Named one of The New Yorker’s Best Videos of the Year!
