'We Strangers' – Kirby Howell-Baptiste Worked Undercover for Her Role
Kirby Howell-Baptiste and writer-director Anu Valia discuss the themes of their drama We Strangers, The Sandman Season 2, and more at SXSW.
At this year’s South by Southwest, writer-director Anu Valia celebrated the world premiere of her feature directorial debut, We Strangers, with lead Kirby Howell-Baptiste (The Sandman). This suspenseful drama marks Valia’s transition from short films and a number of hit television series with a narrative that highlights racial constructs, the process of assimilation and its harmful nature, and the consequences of societal trappings. The film also stars Sarah Goldberg, Tina Lifford, Kara Young, Paul Adelstein, Hari Dhillon, and Maria Dizzia.
