Future Classics is the brainchild of director Elias Ressegatti and cinematographer Daryl Hefti. Shot exclusively on 16mm film, the project is born out of a passion for cars and the people that share this obsession. Future Classics is shot in a bare-bones approach to honor the independent spirit of filmmaking as well as let the beauty of the cars, their people and the surroundings speak for themselves.
Episode 1 coming soon.
