  • Pictured: Director Josephine Mackarras<br />
After winning the Grand Jury at South by South West and a string of other awards Josephine Mackerras’ female empowered drama 'Alice' will receive its UK premiere at Edinburgh International Film Festival.<br />
<br />
Named one of the top rising female directors to watch in 2019 by IndieWire,  Josephine Mackerras’ feature Alice shares the story of a mother who stumbles on a devastating secret that changes her life. This remarkable film premiered at SXSW taking the Grand Jury Prize, and also winning SXSW Cherry Pickers. It then went on to win a hat trick of awards at RiverRun. The film stars Chloé Boreham (Ready for This), Emilie Piponnier (La stagiaire) and Martin Swabey (The kidnapping of Phil Frisco).<br />
<br />
Alice, a happy and perfect wife and mother who appears to have it all until she discovers her husband is living a double life, leaving her penniless and alone with a child. Her fight back leads her to the world of high class escorts.<br />
<br />
 <br />
Multi-award-winning filmmaker Josephine Mackerras’ shorts A Sign, Modlitba, L’enfant perdu, and Diva have been selected by over 90 high profile festivals, including Slamdance, AFI, Rome, Palm Springs, Rhode Island and Raindance. When she was in pre-production with an Oscar-winning producer, Josephine fell pregnant and the project went sideways, deciding to take things into her own hands, she wrote a screenplay and created Alice. <br />
 <br />
As a single mother with next to no money and unable to find a producer with the same vision as her, Josephine threw herself into the insane project of finding 22 actors and 27 technicians who would work for free because they were touched by the story of Alice and the passion of the filmmaker. <br />
 <br />
This ground-breaking film won the SXSW Grand Jury Prize and the Cherry Picks First Film Award, then at RiverRun International Film Festival the film won Best Film, Best Director and the Audience Award, the first time ever in RiverRun history a film has won all three aw

After winning the Grand Jury at South by South West and a string of other awards Josephine Mackerras’ female empowered drama 'Alice' will receive its UK premiere at Edinburgh International Film Festival.<br />
<br />
Named one of the top rising female directors to watch in 2019 by IndieWire,  Josephine Mackerras’ feature Alice shares the story of a mother who stumbles on a devastating secret that changes her life. This remarkable film premiered at SXSW taking the Grand Jury Prize, and also winning SXSW Cherry Pickers. It then went on to win a hat trick of awards at RiverRun. The film stars Chloé Boreham (Ready for This), Emilie Piponnier (La stagiaire) and Martin Swabey (The kidnapping of Phil Frisco).<br />
<br />
Alice, a happy and perfect wife and mother who appears to have it all until she discovers her husband is living a double life, leaving her penniless and alone with a child. Her fight back leads her to the world of high class escorts.<br />
<br />
 <br />
Multi-award-winning filmmaker Josephine Mackerras’ shorts A Sign, Modlitba, L’enfant perdu, and Diva have been selected by over 90 high profile festivals, including Slamdance, AFI, Rome, Palm Springs, Rhode Island and Raindance. When she was in pre-production with an Oscar-winning producer, Josephine fell pregnant and the project went sideways, deciding to take things into her own hands, she wrote a screenplay and created Alice. <br />
 <br />
As a single mother with next to no money and unable to find a producer with the same vision as her, Josephine threw herself into the insane project of finding 22 actors and 27 technicians who would work for free because they were touched by the story of Alice and the passion of the filmmaker. <br />
 <br />
This ground-breaking film won the SXSW Grand Jury Prize and the Cherry Picks First Film Award, then at RiverRun International Film Festival the film won Best Film, Best Director and the Audience Award, the first time ever in RiverRun history a film has won all three aw

After winning the Grand Jury at South by South West and a string of other awards Josephine Mackerras’ female empowered drama 'Alice' will receive its UK premiere at Edinburgh International Film Festival.<br />
<br />
Named one of the top rising female directors to watch in 2019 by IndieWire,  Josephine Mackerras’ feature Alice shares the story of a mother who stumbles on a devastating secret that changes her life. This remarkable film premiered at SXSW taking the Grand Jury Prize, and also winning SXSW Cherry Pickers. It then went on to win a hat trick of awards at RiverRun. The film stars Chloé Boreham (Ready for This), Emilie Piponnier (La stagiaire) and Martin Swabey (The kidnapping of Phil Frisco).<br />
<br />
Alice, a happy and perfect wife and mother who appears to have it all until she discovers her husband is living a double life, leaving her penniless and alone with a child. Her fight back leads her to the world of high class escorts.<br />
<br />
 <br />
Multi-award-winning filmmaker Josephine Mackerras’ shorts A Sign, Modlitba, L’enfant perdu, and Diva have been selected by over 90 high profile festivals, including Slamdance, AFI, Rome, Palm Springs, Rhode Island and Raindance. When she was in pre-production with an Oscar-winning producer, Josephine fell pregnant and the project went sideways, deciding to take things into her own hands, she wrote a screenplay and created Alice. <br />

<br />
Annie Ernaux started her literary career in 1974 with Les Armoires vides (Cleaned Out), an autobiographical novel. In 1984, she won the Renaudot Prize for another of her autobiographical works La Place (A Man's Place), an autobiographical narrative focusing on her relationship with her father and her experiences growing up in a small town in France, and her subsequent process of moving into adulthood and away from her parents' place of origin.[6][7]<br />
<br />
Very early in her career, she turned away from fiction to concentrate on autobiography.[8] Her work combines historic and individual experiences. She charts her parents' social progression (La place, La honte), her adolescence (Ce qu'ils disent ou rien), her marriage (La femme gelée), her passionate affair with an eastern European man (Passion simple), her abortion (L'événement), Alzheimer's disease (Je ne suis pas sortie de ma nuit), the death of her mother (Une femme), and breast cancer (L'usage de la photo).[9] Ernaux also wrote L'écriture comme un couteau (Writing as Sharp as a Knife) with Frédéric-Yves Jeannet.[9] <br />
