Dolls

An 18-minute short film about the investigation of a relationship workshop called Dolls, led by and for trans women. Geme, its charismatic power hungry leader is rumored to be running a cult as she helps attendees process their relationship problems - but something more sinister may be going on. Yan, a junior private investigator hungry for a promotion was hired to find a missing girl named Valeria, last seen at the Dolls location. Yam goes undercover to attend the workshop but, unlike in other investigations, this job requires her to explore personal experiences in order to blend in with the attendees. YAN soon feels conflicted: she’s seeing a darker force is at play, but she’s quickly developing a bond with the Dolls and uncovering feelings she had never investigated within herself. At the end of the workshop, Yan has a complicated choice to make.
