In The Seats With...Aviva Amour-Ostroff and 'Lune'

It's genuinely hard to know about other people's sufferings... Miriam (Aviva Amour-Ostroff) is a South African born Jew raising her seventeen year old daughter, Eliza, in 1994 Canada. Nelson Mandela’s upcoming election triggers a manic episode in the bipolar Miriam, who has spent years fighting apartheid. Fuelled by the introduction of Mike, Eliza’s Black boyfriend, Miriam‘s mania escalates as she navigates politics, religion, the metal health care system, and parenting. Playing now at Cinequest from March 20th-30th, we got the distinct pleasure to sit down with writer/director/star Aviva Amour-Ostroff about her inspiration for the film and so very much more.
