Suite 437 is a New York-based production company born of a dedication to storytelling which brings female/female identifying centered stories into the spotlight.

Buttball, set during the Reagan years, Buttball is a slice-of-life piece pinpointing a crucial moment in the life of fifth-grader Erin as she realizes her own world of gender politics – what it means to be female, and the repercussions of excelling in a boy’s world.
A review from Blackbird Film Festival: 'Maryll Botula's short film BUTTBALL skillfully juxtaposes a complex story of gender politics on the playground to the gender politics of the Reagan era - specifically that of the Challenger disaster in 1986. Through the eyes of a fifth grade girl who wants to play with the boys, BUTTBALL unpacks the complicated balance women (young and old) are forced to maintain to "exist" in a man's world. In a brilliant way, writer and director Maryll Botula is able to extrapolate these ideas into space as Erin (Angelina Andrews), the young tomboy, comes to realize how this power dynamic might be holding her back just as tragedy strikes the Challenger - a spaceship carrying two of the first female astronauts... An AMAZING film and a MUST WATCH for all!'
