Interview: Florencia Manóvil

November 4th, 2009

Interview by Emmanuel Garcia

Last week on Homofrecuencia I interviewed Florencia Manovil director of Fiona’s Script.  I interviewed Manovil, a native of Buenos Aires, ahead of her Chicago visit to promote her film at the Reeling 28 Chicago Lesbian and Gay International Film Festival.  Manovil has written a colorful movie about a queer screenwriter in search of true love and I was curious to know if this was life imitating art.

Fiona a queer screenwriter living in Oakland is having a fixed case of writers block and can’t decide who her main character will end up with. To make things more dizzying Fiona is caught in between getting over her ex-boyfriend Sebastian and opening up to L, the girl she’s had a crush on; oh and did I mention L was also her ex-boyfriends crush? Who will Fiona end up with and how will her screenplay end?

Listen!
