Luna has been featured as an emerging force by several magazines and podcasts, including NY Magazine. Click Here for Press.

JEAN PFLUM (they/them) is a NYC based artist. They began their career acting and now has ventured into the deep of producing and directing. Their first solo film, Goo, is set to premiere in 2025. Whether it be puppets, film, or TTRPGs Jean often finds themselves drawn towards the unsettling. With than in mind Jean is ecstatic to explore the divinely feminine and the chillingly carnal in FILMGIRL.

FINN STEWARD is a New York based actor, musician, and poet.  He is extremely excited to make his horror film debut with FILMGIRL.  Professionally, he has performed in regional theatre across the country. Recently, he has been branching into new territory: appearing as a featured extra in Sean Baker’s upcoming film, Anora, appearing in a local burlesque/variety show, and developing his own multi-medium show.  Finn enjoys nothing more than collaborating with other artists, and it is a joy and a privilege to him to be a part of this sexy, scary short. His favorite film is The Grand Budapest Hotel (he’s one of *those* kinds of film boys. Not the worst….right?)
