‘Three Women’ Helmer Lisa Brühlmann Talks Acting and Directing in ‘When We Were Sisters’: ‘I’ve Never Felt I Wasn’t Taken Seriously Because I Took Myself Seriously’


Swiss filmmaker Lisa Brühlmann, also behind ‘Three Women’ and ‘Killing Eve,’ talks combining acting and directing in ‘When We Were Sisters.’

In “When We Were Sisters,” Swiss filmmaker Lisa Brühlmann decided to stand on both sides of the camera: as both an actor and a director. With “When We Were Sisters,” Brühlmann returns to the Zurich Film Festival, where she was previously awarded for “Blue My Mind.” Since then, she directed several episodes of acclaimed TV shows, including “Three Women,” based on Lisa Taddeo’s bestseller, and “Killing Eve,” for which she scored an Emmy nomination. Valeska and Lena (Paula Rappaport, Malou Mösli) find common ground rather quickly.
