We are bringing back our Tribeca 2022 interview for the US release of the film, now in select theaters and streaming.

Cinema Femme talks to writer/director Michal Chmielewski, writer/star Lena Góra, and star/producer John Hawkes about their film “Roving Woman”. The film is having their world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival.

Synopsis: A break-up leaves Sara (Lena Góra) reeling and directionless, standing alone on her ex’s doorstep in a ballgown. Following her impulses, she starts to drive through the desert and makes unexpected connections along the way.
