She took the steps necessary to put together a tight knit team to help bring her vision to the big screen as she sought advice from veteran filmmaker Joe Paul Reisig, who was so impressed by her unwavering drive that he agreed to come on board her film to help.

Make no mistake about it, Ava Justin put in the work to see her vision realized, and that realization is called “Joy Of Horses”. It is a testament of her drive as this up-and-coming filmmaker not only brought her first feature film from conception to completion, but also started her own production company Ava Justin Productions (www.avajustinproductions.com) to show she meant business. In doing so, she has highlighted one of her driving motivations. To not only kick the door open for herself in the film industry, but also to provide opportunities for others of varied ethnicities, as she herself comes from a multiracial background with a mother of Kenyan descent and an American dad. Along with her goal of telling rich and compelling stories on both big and small screens, inclusivity, and diversity are of the upmost importance to this budding filmmaker.

At the core of this heartfelt tale that Ava Justin has so lovingly woven is Joy, who after she loses someone close to her, must move to a new state and start fresh. That means new people, new experiences, and new beginnings. All is well until a tumultuous love triangle is formed, along with the added pressure of Joy reuniting with someone from her past. Ava expertly composes a tight script that’s full of compelling characters as well many of the tenets of the family film genre. With all these elements put together, she has crafted an engaging film that is sure to satisfy filmgoers young and old.
