Honey Lauren is having a major moment. The actress-filmmaker's directorial debut Mistake is heading to New Filmmakers Los Angeles (NFMLA) for a special LGBTQ+ Cinema event during Pride Month.
Lauren wrote, directed, and stars in the drama, which won Best Inspirational Feature at the recent Sedona International Film Festival in Arizona.
The film explores intersex representation, a subject rarely seen in mainstream cinema. With Lauren controlling the project both behind and in front of the camera, Mistake carries an authenticity that resonates at festivals and with audiences seeking diverse storytelling.
The cast includes Dominic Bogart, Jiji Hise, Brett Cullen, and others. It is the kind of ensemble that signals serious creative ambition.
NFMLA's decision to spotlight Mistake during Pride Month aligns with the festival's record of championing underrepresented voices in cinema. Lauren's intersex-centered narrative fits that mission. For a debut director, this platform and early recognition is substantial.
Mistake screens at NFMLA during Pride Month.
