Meet our Writer-Director Michael-Michelle Pratt 🌹🖤
Michael-Michelle is a writer/director specializing in cultural criticism centered on Blackness, Black womanhood, film, television, beauty, spirituality & mental health.
On why this film matters:
“As a lesbian filmmaker, I want to bring specificity to queer relationships that often go underrepresented in genre storytelling. My goal is to craft a suspenseful, eerie, and emotionally charged experience – one that uses body horror and allegory to explore the cost of withholding your truth, and the radical act of choosing vulnerability instead. If you’ve ever hesitated to say I love you, or feared that your honesty might ruin everything, this film is for you.” – Michael-Michelle
