Mission Statement

We aim to create a bold, satirical, and unapologetically raunchy film that empowers student filmmakers to take risks, challenge norms, and prove that independent film can be as daring and culturally sharp as any major release.

NOTE FROM OUR DIRECTOR:


"This story means so much to me. It’s inspired by the women in my life who have faced misogyny, sexism, and objectification from men they once trusted. I want this film to reach those who feel they will never belong in a professional, male-dominated atmosphere, and to empower them—both sexually and individually—to live life on their own terms and make the good in the world. This is a call to action to face reality, no matter how frightening.” - Faith JordanTHE STORY:


Gina Catchatori, a cunning Senate intern by day and viral dominatrix exposé by night, is on a mission to take down corrupt men in power. Through her underground videos, she humiliates political elites while building an anonymous following online. When whispers of a secret political club reach her, Gina sees the perfect opportunity to expose the system from the inside. She uses the only power the world has ever gifted her to convince her boss Robbie to take her as his date. 


But once she gains entry, she discovers the world of masks, power, and animalistic frenzy is far darker than she imagined. Betrayed by Robbie, Gina becomes prey in a grotesque masquerade of predators. Left broken and discarded, her disappearance is quietly buried—until Tina, a wide-eyed new intern and Gina’s online admirer, uncovers Gina’s legacy and vows to continue her fight.
