“Trash Baby” marks a few firsts. It’s the directorial debut of an Oregon filmmaker and it’s the acting debut for a Portland high schooler.
Now, the film is set for its world premiere at the SXSW festival in Austin, Texas.
“’Trash Baby’ is very loosely inspired by my own childhood, and it has a lot of reoccurring themes that I think happened for everyone at that age around forcefully wanting to be older than you are, and then kind of the reality of what that actually looks like when you start embracing some of the adult themes that come into play,” director Jacy Mairs told KOIN 6 News.

Written and directed by Jacy Mairs ”Trash Baby” is an indie drama that celebrates the kids who grew up amidst white trash culture in the early 2000’s. Bold, cinematic, and rooted in authenticity, this film is a love letter to the beauty of one of America’s most dismissed communities, and an honest look at those society openly calls trash.
