Our slate of projects for Spring of 2024 include the following shorts :
SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY

TWO LESBIANS IN A COFFEESHOP

"Two Lesbians in a Coffeeshop" explores a chance encounter between Josephine (Davis) from the late 1700s and Evelyn (Bryn) from the 1970s. This whimsical romance unfolds in a modern coffee shop, bringing together characters from different eras in a heartwarming and imaginative story.
UNTITLED QUEER DYSTOPIAN SHORT
Written by Ava Davis
Directed by Ava Davis and Iona Leighton
In this dystopian world, "Untitled Queer Dystopian Short" follows Jade, a black transwoman (Davis), as she grapples with survival, community leadership, dysphoria, and self-discovery. The narrative sheds light on the challenges faced by marginalized communities in a futuristic setting.
Beyond these films, Our extended goal of funding half a season of "The Ava Davis Show" serves as a crucial platform for independent artists, particularly those from the LGBTQ community. This talk show will not only introduce audiences to diverse artists but also provide a space for showcasing their work. "Court Circular," our accompanying magazine, will further advance this mission by promoting and highlighting the artistic contributions of LGBTQ creators across various mediums, including film, music, and performance.
The Duchess of Grant Park continues to champion these projects, utilizing the power of her tiara and crown to advocate for art, queer youth, and LGBTQ issues in Atlanta and the Southeast.
In addition, we're planning a showcase in the fall of 2024 featuring these shorts and past shorts Studio Vosges has helped produce!
