Interview: Nia DaCosta – Little Woods | 2015 January Screenwriters Lab

Date:

Selected for the US Narrative Competition at the 2018 Tribeca Film Festival, we’ve been tracking Nia DaCosta‘s feature debut project since sitting down with her to discuss the project when it was on paper at 2015 edition of the Sundance Film Festival directly after a stint at the January Screenwriters Lab. The NYC based filmmaker would shoot Little Woods in January of 2017 with the likes of Tessa Thompson, Lily James, Luke Kirby, James Badge Dale, and Lance Reddick joining the indie project. Here is my sit down with the filmmaker.
