Go Get Her Productions brings a little magic, a lot of mischief and some unexpected criminal activity to Couch Party, a comedy about two women who discover that an old couch has a rather unusual effect on the men who sit on it. The film arrives on Digital Video December 15, 2026.
Trying to escape an abusive marriage, Briella heads to the small town of Maple Creek hoping for a fresh start and a chance to rebuild her life. Unfortunately, starting over isn’t quite as easy as she imagined. With no money or belongings to her name, she finds herself relying on the kindness of her new landlord, Mama Lu, who gives her an old couch for her new home.
It doesn’t take long for Briella and her roommate Joy to discover that this isn’t an ordinary piece of furniture. Whenever a man sits on it, he immediately falls into a deep, harmless sleep, completely knocked out as though he’s in a coma.
For Joy, who dreams of moving to Hollywood to pursue a singing career, and Briella, who desperately wants to get her life back on track, the strange discovery presents an opportunity they never expected.

One Couch, Two Women and a Rather Unusual Business Plan
Joy comes up with the idea of hosting what they call “couch parties.” Their plan is simple: invite men over, get them comfortable on the magical couch, and help themselves to the cash and jewellery they leave behind while they’re sleeping.
What starts as a seemingly easy way to make money soon becomes a much bigger problem.
Briella is particularly anxious to keep her whereabouts hidden from her abusive ex-husband, Aaron. But while trying to stay out of trouble, she attracts the attention of Eric, a local police officer investigating a growing number of reports involving missing valuables.
As the women become increasingly careless, their little scheme starts attracting the wrong kind of attention. Between a potentially dangerous ex-husband, a curious police officer and a growing trail of victims, Briella and Joy may discover that their magical money-making idea comes with a price.
Will Aaron track Briella down? Can the two friends make enough money to pursue their dreams? And perhaps most importantly, will the men on the couch wake up before the magic wears off?
