Challenge the Obvious: A day in the life of Haas & Hahn

Online documentary from HUB Footwear about the Favela Painting project, directed by Miguel Narings for Halal & VICE. Music by Baris Akardere. 

Life is about the surprising moments, not about going by the book. This is the basis of footwear brand HUB's motto - 'Challenge the Obvious'. Inspired by this thought, we are proud to present the first in a series of documentaries about the beautiful minds who 'Challenge the Obvious' every day. Our first film is about Dre Urhahn and Jeroen Koolhaas, who use art in their quest to help change the lives of people who live in socially troubled neighborhoods in Rio de Janeiro and Philadelphia.
