‘Til Morning was made by New York based artists who are also really close friends. They believe that good films come from the work of collective collaborations. ‘Til Morning was shot both in New York and Brazil and it opened doors for a lot of international artists to evoke their creative skills and give voice to stories from cultures that are usually not told. It is a cultural bridge between Brazil and the US.
‘Til Morning is about the importance of family (both blood and chosen), the danger of self-pride, and how these two are enhanced by long distance and political crisis. Our team is mostly composed of immigrant women in NYC, and we got together with the chosen family we were so lucky to find here in order to tell a story that represents some of the deepest struggles we have all experienced as we came of age in a foreign land — guilt, loneliness, financial instability and oppression.
Til Morning main awards, nominations and selections include outstanding drama; The Art of Brooklyn Film Festival, Best Coming of Age Drama Short: Manhattan Film Festival, Official Selection: Chelsea Film Festival, aGLIFF/Prism Film Festival, Best Actress Nominee: Indie Short Fest, Golden Short Film Festival and The Lee Strasberg Film Festival.
