Road To Roswell - A Welcome To Roswell Short (2026)

Journeying across New Mexico toward the historic crossroads of Roswell, a transgender filmmaker packs a compact crew for an intimate mission: filming his transition story for his relatives. Along the highway leading to the legendary 1947 extraterrestrial landing site, the team streams a speculative science fiction audio series that rapidly captivates the lead cinematographer, pulling her into a deep fascination with local lore and alien theory. As the director struggles to maintain creative control over his deeply personal documentary, unexpected cosmic events threaten to hijack the entire shoot. Titled ROAD TO ROSWELL, this experimental short serves as a proof-of-concept for StormMiguel Florez’s upcoming narrative mockumentary Welcome To Roswell, which remains in active development. Blending authentic LGBTQ+ filmmaking with roadside mystery and genre suspense, the piece explores how personal revelation intersects with the unknown when reality begins to mirror the legends.
