SXSW: Perfect with Ashley Moore, Millicent Hailes, Lío Mehiel, and Micaela Wittman

Director Millicent Hailes joins the sibs alongside stars Ashley Moore, Lío Mehiel, and Micaela Wittman to dig into their sun-soaked indie Perfect. The ensemble unpacks how a summer-camp shoot on the side of a California road gave birth to the film's lived-in community, why Kai (wave) and Sonny (sunshine) are names that were always destined to find each other, and what it means to reach your hand out to a stranger. They also get into the film's bold portrayal of Julia Fox as a pregnant person with full desires of her own.
