Emma Mackey on Starring in ‘Haunting’ Mother-Daughter Drama ‘Hot Milk’ and Vicky Krieps Playing Her Love Interest: ‘She’s Really a Force’
'Sex Education' and 'Barbie' star Emma Mackey discusses her new film 'Hot Milk,' which premieres at Berlin Film Festival on Friday.
The two actors play love interests Sofia and Ingrid in “ Hot Milk,” Rebecca Lenkiewicz’s feature directorial debut that premieres at Berlin Film Festival on Friday, and the first scene they shot together also marked the first time they’d truly interacted. Based on Deborah Levy’s 2016 novel of the same name, “Hot Milk” follows a daughter and mother — played by Mackey and Fiona Shaw, respectively — who “wrestle with co-dependency and desire by the Spanish seaside,” according to the synopsis. There’s a deep unrest in this film and there’s a real soul searching, specifically on Sofia’s part — all of these questions about her own identity that are completely unanswered and she’s never really dealt with because she’s so consumed by looking after her mum.
