Lady Parts is an Official Selection of the 2024 Austin Film Festival. It is a feature length live action dramedy written by Bonnie Gross and directed by Nancy Boyd.
Lady Parts follows Paige, a young woman whose family helps her recover after surgery on her vagina, which will improve her quality of life. In the film, we learn that Paige suffers from a rare condition in her vagina. Somehow, this film manages to make the most of its premise, and tells its story with sincerity, humor and a uniquely relatable charm. Well written, well-acted, well shot, Lady Parts is a surprisingly engaging film!
My favorite thing about this film is that it is more than just about the lady parts of the lead character-it discusses an important and unfortunately under-discussed topic: women’s health. I loved the realistic sounding dialogue and learning about Paige’s road to recovery. The characters are realistic and I found the film to be incredibly moving and hopeful.
Lady Parts screened on October 27 and will be screening again on October 30th at Galaxy at 9:00PM. Lady Parts is a little bit meta and we dig it all the more for it. You’ll see what we mean when you watch it (we don’t want to spoil it). Please enjoy this film- it is well worth watching.
