About

Inspired by true events, Swipe, Life and Gate Number 5 is a hilarious lesbian love story between a white and a black immigrant told through an innovative fusion of theatre and film. With only one performer on stage, and everyone else projected on am screen, prepare to fall in love, as the couple begin their extraordinary relatable, almost too good to be true, love story that leads them from a swipe to gate number 5.

Staring Princess Donnough & Henriette Laursen

Directed by Rasheka Christie-Carter

DOP: Vincent Rosec
