SAM WANTS HER SWEATER BACK! is a 20 minute comedy about a trio of friends who launch a half-witted heist to steal back a sweater from one of their exes.

A delightful romp from denial to acceptance after being broken up with, SWHSB! is ultimately about recovery from heartbreak through the love of friends.

Too often queer and trans narratives are demanded by the film industry to center struggle and strife and pain. But we’re not telling one of those stories. Like BOTTOMS and FIRE ISLAND, SWHSB! centers queer characters while having a damn good time along the way.

Speaking of the film-industry’s outdated “norms”: SWHSB! is breaking ‘em behind the camera, too! Our crew is currently 90% woman, queer, trans, and/or POC and we’re going to keep it that way. In addition, we are modeling our compensation structure on an “all boats rise” method. Everyone up and down the call sheet will receive the same day rate as well as future equity stake in the film as a means of further promoting the principle of equality in production.

SWHSB! raised 100% of its crowdfunding goal on Seed & Spark in addition to receiving the Mark Duplass Spotlight!
