Harrison Hathaway

Harrison River Hathaway is an American filmmaker, writer, illustrator, animator, media theorist, and actor. His work focuses on big emotional and personal questions—like how identity, ideology, and mental health are shaped by a fast, relentlessly evolving world. Through short films like Bird, Louise & Somebody Else (2021), mydrugswherearemydrugs (2024), and Adolescent Window (2025), Hathaway explores feelings of disconnection, emotional overload, and the struggle to make sense of life. His stories often deal with real experiences like dissociation, suicidal thoughts, and the blurry space between reality and perception—frequently injected with moments of levity.
