Tribeca: Tell us a little about Migraine. How do you describe the movie in your own words? Matthew Bonifacio: Migraine is about a Seattle shoe designer who is forced to confide in his hotel's concierge when he is struck with a serious migraine. He is sent on an adventure through the boroughs of New York City that will change his life. A friend of mine recently called it a Cinderella story. I thought that was pretty cool. Tribeca: As the writer/director, what inspired you to tell this story? Are your films triggered by personal experiences? Matthew Bonifacio: My producers, Michael O'Farrell, Julianna Gelinas, Joseph Barbara and I formed 6250 Productions. We actually have a feature film in development, and Michael proposed we do a short in the meantime. So one night Michael, Julianna, and I were all bouncing around possible ideas and sharing stories at the Sofitel Hotel New York.
