Director David Lowery Explains Mother Mary’s Hidden Backstory

The new film from A24 and director David Lowery stars Anne Hathaway as a former pop star getting ready for a big comeback. But the movie is less about the performance itself and more about what happens while she prepares. A central story focuses on the complicated relationship between the singer and her old friend and costume designer, Sam Anselm (played by Michaela Coel), as past hurts resurface and put even more strain on their connection.
