What if you could rewrite your memories?

Guacamole Yesterdays is a grounded sci-fi love story that actually makes you feel something.

Emotionally Resonant

"I psychotically loved the movie. It’s one of those movies that I want everyone I love to see. Sticks with you in a profoundly personal way." — Mary Beth, audience member

Cathartic & Healing

“I didn’t even realize I needed this like that. A masterpiece.” — Daya, audience member

Deeply Relatable

“Funny and honest and weird. A brilliant, dreamy film with some of the most real relationship dialogue I’ve seen.” — Van, audience member

Beautifully Made

“The writing is sharp, the performances are on point, and the pacing keeps you engaged from start to finish.” — Lance, audience member

What if a genre film helped you embrace your emotions instead of just escape them?

In a world full of AI, CGI, and algorithm-driven stories, modern movies often prioritize I.P. over emotional connection. If you've ever found yourself craving something deeper than just a distraction… you're not alone.

Guacamole Yesterdays is made by indie filmmakers who believe in the power of honest, authentic storytelling that invites you to feel, reflect, and find healing.

About the film.

Ames, a cartoonist reeling from heartbreak, agrees to an experimental therapy that allows her to relive and reshape her memories of her ex. As she replays first kisses, awkward arguments, and quiet heartbreaks, she begins to question what’s real, what’s imagined, and whether altering your memories can actually heal you… or just bury the truth.

Starring Randy Havens (Stranger Things), Sophie Edwards (This World Alone), and Aditenpo Thomas (Hawkeye).

We’re Jordan & Hudson, the director and writer behind the 7-year long journey to bring Guacamole Yesterdays to audiences. Together, along with an insanely talented cast & crew, we’ve created two award-winning feature films:

• This World Alone is a post-apocalyptic drama that won Best Feature at six festivals, Best Screenplay at two, and was released on Hulu with a positive review in The New York Times.

• Guacamole Yesterdays went on a 13-city theatrical tour (with in-person Q&As), played 11 festivals, won Best Feature at the Georgia Film Festival, the Audience Award at the Phoenix Film Festival, and Best Genre Screenplay at Phoenix Film Festival.

At Mirror Box Films, everything we make is driven by a desire for connection, collaboration, and community.

The name comes from a therapy device that uses reflection to release phantom pain. We believe that’s what great movies do as well. When you see your own heartbreak, regret, or healing reflected honestly on screen, it helps you let go and move forward.
