The Covid Graduate is a satire film loosely based on the 1967 Mike Nichols film The Graduate. When Benny sees his ex-girlfriend Lanie at a college reunion of people who graduated during the Covid-19 Pandemic, he realizes he never got closure. Although Lanie is getting married soon, Benny has other plans.

Written, directed, produced, cast, and edited by Rosey Pasco, this is her first full-length short film. She was inspired by her own experiences with college throughout the pandemic, as well as the unique experience of reuniting with people she had lost touch with during that time.
