Marielle Heller in attendance and will receive the Festival's Visionary Award
Academy Award nominee Amy Adams stars as a woman who has left the city and her career to be a stay-at-home mom. Through the challenges of parenting a young toddler, her mighty maternal instincts begin to manifest in newly empowered canine form. In this penetrating, funny, and outrageous look at the realities of being an American mom, Marielle Heller (Can You Ever Forgive Me) has crafted a wildly entertaining and satirical tale of female struggle and strength. Propelled by Adams’s primal, captivating, and truly transformational performance, Nightbitch is a bold and sardonic story of motherhood like no other.
