The writer and director talked to THR about her first feature, how she thinks about identity and why theater is now likely 'a past life' for her: 'It was a revelation to me that I am a filmmaker.'

how her theater background helps her with writing dialogue, why her story is so universal and her request for people who go see the film.is one of those personal stories with universal appeal. Did you set out with that goal in mind?

The opening scene in that bar shows the three main characters sitting in the bar and someone is wondering about their relationship to each other, which is the kind of conversation I have had with friends before. How do you craft dialogue that feels so natural and authentic? I’m not going to do any fireworks or do some VFX or something to improve what’s going on in the actors’ faces. What that means is the whole movie has to live in the actors’ faces. So there are a couple of things that I did.

What’s so funny is that when we talk about identity, a part of our talking about identity is a flattening of our human experience into words. If you’d talk about your identity, you’d say: Well, I’m an Austrian with a Hungarian dad, who is a journalist, which isn’t the whole of what’s going on with you. And then once a New Yorker. So everything is about a flattening of your experience.

that we are. And it’s about both accepting that and reconciling that and letting go of the idea that you’re just one thing. How do you feel about theater at this stage in your career? Is it something that you might still explore more or is that a “past life” at this stage?
