Martha Stephens
Knowing the legacy of the state Oklahoma, To The Stars turns what could have been a fairly run-of-the-mill coming of age story into a broader indictment of a state’s transcendent violence.
Under small town scrutiny, a withdrawn farmer’s daughter forges an intimate friendship with a worldly but reckless new girl in 1960s Oklahoma.
At this year’s Sundance Film Festival we sat down with To The Stars director Martha Stephens and leads Liana Liberato and Kara Hayward.
