LA MAMA PRESENTS

Gag Reflex

A trio of best friends team up to win a manuscript contest so that they can afford the summer of their dreams. If they can’t win the cash prize, they’re definitely 1000% gonna have the most boring holidays ever and then probably never see each other again because what if they get into different unis??

They’re limited on time and they figure – given their algorithms – that their best chance lies in writing a literary masterpiece about lesbian vampires fucking. And also ****ing and ******ing  <3.

Their ideas about sex, romance and relationships are explored as they write, edit and upload the work. Also... they all have literally 0 IRL sexual experience.

Enjoy the ride!! 👅😝 🤪 🤑 😜
