The Laugh Gap follows young comedian Keely Shaller (they/them) as they confront the gendered double standards of humor. Through personal stories, archival clips, and stand-up, the film explores how cultural narratives have long sidelined women and queer voices in comedy. Both sharp and heartfelt, this short documentary celebrates those who dare to be loud, weird, and funny — and claims space for future voices to do the same.
