“I dream in frames. I’m constantly seeing the story in everything around me.”
Kaitlyn Healy is an independent screenwriter-director hailing from Madison, Wisconsin. She’s been writing stories and creating films since her youth. Having spent the majority of her life in the MidWest as a queer woman, her films often come from a perspective of empathy for those who are “othered” by modern society.
Featured Projects
Friendsgiving, written and directed by Kaitlyn Healy, features an ensemble cast of up and coming, LA-based actors. The project is backed by a producing team made up entirely of women and non-binary individuals.
The story follows Charles, a young man in his twenties, as he hosts a Friendsgiving celebration with his new coworker and four best friends. Tension circulates due to the complicated dynamics that exist within the eclectic group of individuals. Charles spends the evening trying to prevent his group of friends from falling apart.
Friendsgiving is NOW STREAMING on YouTube and Vimeo. A second installment in the four-part series following the friend group featured in Friendsgiving is in development.
