A queer romance drama short film that explores the overcoming of sexual trauma.

A short summary of your project

The production explores how to navigate healthy romantic relationships after experiencing an unhealthy one (especially as first). In fact, our plot follows the main character, called Rosie, as she's trying to deal with the emotional scars left by an abusive relationship she's had in the past.

Through deep conversations and seldom fights with her closest friends; Rosie stumbles as she dates the lovely Sofia. She's her perfect partner, but will Rosie let herself be seen? Or is risking letting her guard down too much to ask of herself?

The aims of the film are to raise awareness not only about abuse in relationships but also about how different people deal with its repercussions in very different ways and how these are all ok.

It advocates for boundaries and speaking out about mental health difficulties with loved ones. It shows its audience that we all struggle and we should be there for each other, rather than using it as an excuse to hurt other people.
