After Emma receives a surprise text from her work crush, she must enlist the help of her friends to respond.

Co-written by Maeve Miller and Alicia Duke, hoe alone was shot in the Spring of 2026. Maeve produced the short alongside director Alicia Duke with a small crew. Because of the film’s scope, the pair got creative with their cast to make a fun short about dating. Riddled with the anxiety and excitement of early womanhood, the film captures the heat and mischief of dating today.

The film is not currently available online.
