In pursuit to complete his first art collection and have it featured in an art gallery, Kyle competes against time, energy and self to make this a reality.

This film will always be special as it is the first short documentary created by Cooper Productions. In pursuit of a career in documentary film making, in the fall of 2022, Marissa Cooper decided to set out on a year long journey to produce her first short film, 24 Karat Zoo. Along the way, she learned so much about the documentary filmmaking process and completing this film has set the foundation for her to produce future documentaries. Her dream is to continue to produce short documentaries and eventually a docuseries.

Marissa completed 24 Karat Zoo in 2023 and at the films completion, hosted a premiere party for peers, friends, and family to view the film. The film was reviewed at film festivals across the United States and was awarded ‘Best Film’ at Seedlings Film Festival and was an ‘Official Selection’ at Roma Film Festival.
