Interview - Bernardo Britto for Omni Loop
Writer / Director (and fellow Fighting Violet) Bernardo Britto joins to talk about his new film Omni Loop and to take a walk down the memory lane of the 8th floor of film school. More about Omni Loop: A quantum physicist (Mary-Louise Parker) finds herself stuck in a time loop, with a black hole growing in her chest and only a week to live. When she meets a gifted student (Ayo Edebiri), they team up to save her life – and to unlock the mysteries of time travel. More about Bernardo Britto: He was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and also raised in Miami, Florida and is a graduate of NYU's Tisch School of the Arts. Bernardo wrote on Julio Torres' highly acclaimed HBO series "Los Espookys" and was in an overall at FX where he created an animated anthology series called "The Places Where We Live" that was nominated for an Annie Award. His previous animated short films include "Yearbook," which won the Short Film Jury Prize at Sundance, and "Glove" which won a Grand Jury Award at SXSW and "Hudson Geese." Bernardo's debut narrative feature was "Jacqueline (Argentine)" and Bernardo is the only filmmaker to ever premiere a live action and animated piece at Sundance at the same time. Omni Loop is out now in theaters and on digital.
