Friday Night Movie By @pancake4table

Writer-actor Dalia Rooni, stars Medalion Rahimi and Layla Mohammidi, and director Lauren Noll talk Same Same But Different, a comedy about three Iranian women on a weekend trip to Cape Cod. They dig into the beauty and joy of portraying smart, funny, and complex women in this sharp and character-driven film that explores what it means to let identity be a beautiful piece of the puzzle rather than the whole conflict. Plus: Farsi, dialect coaches, aunties, nepotism, squatting, and drumming legend Jess Bowen auditioning for the role of hot girl. Follow all of Friday Night Movie's award-winning SXSW Coverage.
