Casting Call

Ronita RAmbo

RONITA RAMBO is a lesbian romance married to a late-in-life coming-of-age story. This short film all takes place over one night in a local diner. It centers around themes of family, chosen family, generational trauma, self-acceptance, addiction, and the queer South. The film is a slam dunk for representation, centering queer women in their 70s living in the Missouri Ozarks. It also boasts the colorful, vibrant, and criminally under-explored setting of Branson, Missouri - the “Evangelical Broadway.” And the roles - especially that of our title character - are hilarious, complex, and provocative. They are ideal for top-tier talent.
