New Swanberg Film!



Kris Swanberg has made a film, and shot it in Costa Rica, no less.
Her debut feature (as a director) is titled "It was great, but I was ready to come home" and will premier in competition (narrative feature) at this years SXSW film fest. Congrats to Kris!
We love the title! And are looking forward to the film.

You may know Kris's work as co-director and star of the web series Young American Bodies (www.youngamericanbodies.com) co produced by IFC and Nerve.com.
She also played a supporting lead in Joe Swanberg's (her husband) Kissing on the Mouth.
She also directed the short doc "Bath Water"( I believed you can watch this on her myspace page); and the honest sex doc series "Boys and Girls" on nerve.com

We are promised their will be a trailer up for her new film, SOON! SOON! SOON!
So keep an eye out for that.
