Comedy, Short Films, 28-Apr-2023
During their first hookup, a new couple workshops a mommy kink. Sophia Smith directs “Mommy,” an awkward sex comedy about intimacy going off the rails. From the start, the encounter is uncomfortable — they fumble to get into position, and he is bothered by the presence of her dog.

Director of Photography: Ben Dawson. Editor: Andy Ruse. Producer: Robyn Lay. Executive Producer: Harland Weiss. Executive Producer: Donovan M. Boden. Executive Producer: Isil Gilderdale. Executive Producer: Emily Harris.
