VFF25: "Lovebug" with "Fairytales are for Losers" and "My Face"

Step into an evening of bold storytelling where love, ambition, and reinvention collide with humor, grit, and just the right amount of edge.

Set against the neon glow of 1980s Los Angeles, the feature follows Douglass (Logan Pepper), a naive young man who tumbles headfirst into the chaotic orbit of Gracie, a hustler with big ideas and no shame. After their first wild night together, she convinces him to step into the adult film industry—with her as his unlikely manager. What begins as an innocent infatuation quickly becomes a coming-of-age tale soaked in sex, hustle, and Hollywood dreams.

The comedy-drama introduces two best friends from drama school—one Brit, one Yank—who find themselves reeling after their marriages simultaneously collapse. Instead of despair, they hatch a daring plan to rewrite their happily-ever-after, proving that sometimes friendship is the greatest fairytale of all.

Preceding both, satirist Jeff Hilliard’s music video  takes a wickedly funny look at power, role-play, and the eccentric ways a high-level executive chooses to blow off steam.

Together, these films and music video deliver an evening of satire, sex, heartbreak, and reinvention—a cinematic cocktail that’s as outrageous as it is heartfelt.
