Aimee Victoria is a short film conceived and created remotely during the lockdown of 2020. It is inspired by true stories of relationships from disabled and LGBTQIA people, which never make it to the screen.

Two profoundly deaf women of color have their relationship tested during a period of unprecedented turmoil. Separated on their anniversary, Aimee is shaken out of her self-imposed apathy as she demonstrates her love to Victoria.
