plural (love) is an experimental short film that follows two bored and restless diner waitresses who receive a cryptic message… The evening quickly becomes a down-the-rabbit-hole adventure where these two friends surrender to their innermost desires.

How does the “best friend” archetype hold the potential for love and desire, as well as pain and metamorphosis? How does a “feminine friendship” encapsulate an entire universe of feelings and possibility? As writers of this film— and best friends in real life— we wanted to explore the running themes of our partnership through our two femme non-binary leads who encapsulate all the characters of this world; they become like mirrors to each other, that reflect all of their ever-shifting desires to be so many things at once. We wanted to use surrealist, dreamy, and humorist language to show how fluid a friendship can actually be: these two are at once best friends, co-workers, lovers, elders, timeless people who emerge from the dirt, siblings, etc., and that the capacity to experience a simultaneity of feelings– like wonder, desire, and even discomfort and pain together– ultimately speaks to bonds that center the power of femininity, and that femininity is not only caring and gentle, but it can be raw, pulsing and divine.
