Nobody wants to shoot a woman, do they? This film is about a woman against all odds, marginalized by society and trying to find a way to survive in a world where motherhood, misogyny, crime, and independence meet. This film is a noir crime drama set on the streets of Brooklyn brought to life by a female writer/director, producer and with a female lead. We wanted to pay homage to the great crime films set in New York City, where the city becomes one of the characters. We cast actors who are embedded in the heart of theater, television and film in New York. Nobody Wants to Shoot a Woman embraces the heart and filmmaking style of 1970s independent cinema… Cassavetes run and gun with a Scorsese crime drama vibe; inspired by one of the pinnacle feminist films, Wanda, by Barbara Loden.
