“Full Circle” is a celebration of Mele Saili’s return to her roots, highlighting the release of her pro model, “The Katwalk.” This film honors the legacy of Gordon and Smith, G&S founded in 1959 by her grandfather, Larry Gordon, and his best friend, Floyd Smith. Mele has made a name for herself in the log world before coming back to represent her family’s business, bringing all that she has learned along the way.
Filmed in less than 10 days in July 2024, “Full Circle” captures the essence of Mele’s journey leading up to the launch of “The Katwalk” on July 28th. Written, directed, and filmed by Alex Patrick, with contributions from Chase Viken and Justin Kohlberg among others.
