What at first seems like an idyllic Los Angeles apartment becomes a hellish prison for a young woman in the new horror film 1Br. The feature-length debut of writer/director David Marmor, 1Br is out now on digital platforms from Dark Sky Films, and we caught up with Marmor in our latest Q&a feature to discuss the film's timely themes of isolation and longing for community, working with Nicole Brydon Bloom and Naomi Grossman, and what he learned from directing his first feature.
Thanks for taking the time to catch up with us, and congratulations on 1Br! How and when did you come up with the idea for this film?
David Marmor: The idea really started when I moved to Los Angeles in my early 20s and lived in a building a lot like the one in the movie. I would wave to the same neighbors on the breezeways...
