In today’s episode, I sit down with Elliott Hasler—the son of Simon Hasler, who joined us a few weeks ago, and the writer-director behind Vindication Swim, which starred Jon Locke (another previous guest).
At just 24 years old, Elliott is already an accomplished filmmaker and cinematographer, having written, directed, and edited all of his films to date. And before you start comparing your own journey to his—something I’ll admit I did—it’s important to know that Elliott’s passion for filmmaking has been a decade in the making. What began as a school project turned into a spark that ignited his creative path, culminating in his first feature film at age 17—a project he and his family worked on for three years.
Elliott’s story is a testament to what’s possible when talent meets consistency, and when passion is pursued with heart and grit. It’s a reminder that age is just a number—and that dedication, creativity, and hard work are what truly matter.
