Starring as the lead in the film, she was recognized by Actors Awards in Los Angeles as a TOP 15 FINALIST for BEST PERFORMANCE OF THE FEST and ultimately awarded BEST ACTRESS with a stellar performance review:

 

"In BXAUTIFUL NIGHTMARX, Juanita Ingram plays Trina, Derrick's ex-wife. She is determined to get back into Derrick's life, no matter what it takes. Juanita's performance is impressive throughout- she created a rounded character who can be powerful, manipulative, and unhinged at the same time. Trina's chemistry with Derrick (wonderfully portrayed by Edward Williams III) is near perfect- both characters help each other keep the tension high from the first scene."

- Actors Awards, Los Angeles

 

Following that honor, Juanita was also awarded BEST ACTRESS IN AN INDIE FILM by the New York Film Awards and the LA Film Awards and BEST ACTRESS in Georgia Shorts Film Festival for her stellar work in the short film.
