Lynn Ma loves to tell stories and this one happened to be in documentary form. She wants to tell stories about her experiences and hopes they will move people and make them laugh. Her next project is about losing the sense of smell through a concussion.

This Q&A is part of the Bushwick Film Fest Filmmaker Q&A series.


What inspired you to create this film, and how did the initial idea come to you?

I have always wanted to do a project around the topic of "friendship."

What do you hope audiences will take away from watching your film?

I hope that people reflect on how much their friends have meant to them throughout their lives. The breakup is a loss because the friendship was something real and meaningful.

What was the biggest inspiration behind this film?

The biggest inspiration was my close community of friends.

If you weren’t a filmmaker, what would you be doing?

I would be a K-pop star!
