Lisanne Skyler Ended Quotations

We weren't very happy with what we were being offered, so we ended up showing it to exhibitors starting with the Film Forum in New York, which supports a lot of independent films.

(The film) came with the idea that (my sister and I) would adapt the stories of Joyce Carol Oates. I had read three different short stories of hers. And so what I wanted to do was to find a way to link all of her stories together. It ended up definitely being an adaptation, but also our own sort of overall story. We were just trying to imagine the life of that character.

In terms of distribution it was really tricky because it was a good film, but it's always a question of 'how are we going to market it?' It ended up having some foreign distribution in place, but we were left with a question mark about how we would get the film out more widely, beyond festivals.
