I believe that every woman has a story worth telling. As a pioneering female-led production company, we specialize in bringing personal narratives to the forefront, capturing the richness of life through the distinct lens of the female gaze. Our commitment to authentic storytelling enables us to explore a diverse range of experiences, emotions, and perspectives that resonate deeply with audiences.
I love helping actors see how their characters affect the writer’s world and relationships. No matter the story, I analyze the connections and consider each character's psychology and role. I find great joy in combining these details with a clear understanding of the writer's intent.

"Rose's Turn" marks my inaugural venture into directing film. I transformed a short play that I originally crafted into a fully realized script. After making the significant transition from Chicago to New York City, I became acutely aware of the stark increase in homelessness, a reality that deeply disturbed me on a personal level. Now, after relocating to Los Angeles, I find the situation has only worsened, intensifying my concern. With this project, we aimed to forge a meaningful connection with the vibrant downtown LA community and to share their stories with the utmost honesty and authenticity. Additionally, I have become increasingly aware of the emotional homelessness that many artists grapple with, a plight that often goes unnoticed yet deserves to be addressed.

In an effort to outrun their taunting and depression, Harriet digs into her ancestral memory to banish their influence, realizing she must be present in order to awaken to win priority in her own life.
In a visual and sonic love letter to filmmaking, NOW AND NEVER’s ever-changing aspect ratios and color palette help navigate the fractured, claustrophobic mind of Harriet, a woman in the midst of an anxiety attack, as she is visited by the embodiment of the voices in her head.

“Director Kymberly Harris has served the needs of her cast, while clarifying the intent of the playwright with an artistry that has formed and shaped without intruding or over-burdening the staging once. In a play as volatile as this, that is a hallmark of directorial skills of the first order.”
