Marceline is vegetarian, kind of lonely, and ready for her date with a cannibal.
MEET THE FILMMAKER: GIOVANNI TORTORICI
Homegrown in Atlanta, 22-year-old Giovanni Tortorici grew up surrounded by actors and stages with connections to the local arts world. He’s witnessed firsthand the impact arts have on solidifying community. While he directs, writes, and AD’s, you can find him giving script feedback and anything else that uplifts growing filmmakers. He and his collaborative crew of filmmakers make movies with an emphasis on building up that same bond of community he’s always admired. Some call the group a FUNduction company, but Giovanni and the team settled on the name Potluck. Since 2018, Potluck has launched an online film festival, Potluckfest with proceeds supporting the Atlanta Artist Relief Fund. When not in Potluck, Giovanni is at work on a documentary project about toxic masculinity and developing a pilot with his writing partner.
