Slice of Life: The American Dream. In Former Pizza Huts. 2024 Directed by Matthew Salleh
A contemporary portrait of America, told through a collection of stories observed within the walls of former Pizza Hut buildings across the country. These nostalgic spaces hold memories of a bygone era, but through the power of transformation, they provide something new and special for the communities that continue to flow through them. From an LGBTQ+ church in Florida, to a karaoke bar in Texas, to a cannabis dispensary in rural Colorado, these modern-day portraits are paralleled with the origin story of Pizza Hut – one of America's most iconic brands, and the two brothers who founded the company in Wichita, Kansas in 1958.
