‘Chlorophyll’ Director Ivana Gloria On Taking The Punk Route To Promoting Her Surreal Coming-Of-Age Story: “I Felt Like A Rock Star”


‘Chlorophyll’ director Ivana Gloria on taking the punk route to promoting her surreal coming-of-age story: “I felt like a rock star”

Starring newcomer Sarah Short, the film concerns a girl called Maia, who discovers that she is not like other young people her age. But it’s not just her dyed-green hair that makes her stand out; when she moves to the Sardinian countryside to pick oranges for the lonely Teo (Michele Ragno), Maia begins sprouting blue flowers that give off a distinctive scent, and her biological clock goes haywire. “I jumped out of a taxi, ran in and presented the movie, and then I got a beer, and did a Q&A after.” Tonight [November 12, 2024] she is hosting a self-arranged screening of the film with Short at the Genesis Cinema in London.
