A queer short film about the kind of connection that feels electric, confusing, intimate, and almost impossible to name.

SITUATIONSHIP follows the magnetic pull between two women caught somewhere between romance, friendship, desire, and uncertainty. The euphoria of feeling chosen, the chaos of mixed signals, and the ache of wanting clarity from something that keeps surviving without a label.

The Goal

Capture the emotional truth of a queer situationship. Specific enough to feel personal, familiar enough that queer audiences see themselves in it.

The Result

Winner, Best Microfilm at QFest LGBTQ Film Festival, where it also screened as an official selection. 14K+ views across Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok.
