Hazel Reed was twenty-five years old this year.
Born into a wealthy family, she had achieved what countless aspiring filmmakers could only dream of.
At just ten years old, she directed her first blockbuster movie, instantly becoming the youngest filmmaking prodigy the world had ever seen.
With her family's immense fortune behind her, Hazel never had to worry about funding her ambitious ideas.
When she first announced that she wanted to make movies, her parents simply smiled and indulged what they thought was a child's passing hobby.
They invested in her first project more to encourage her than because they believed it would succeed.
To everyone's astonishment, the film became a worldwide phenomenon.
It quickly became clear that Hazel's success had nothing to do with her family's wealth.
