PLAYING NOBOKOV - synopsis

Middle-aged, LA actor Mike Sokolov comes to Ithaca, NY to research the role of Nabokov for an upcoming feature. Angela, an African-American acting student, forces Mike to confront delusions triggered by supposed success, a lingering divorce, and his immersion in Nabokov's work. Haunted by existential anguish, Russian tunes, and gladiator butterflies, Mike plays a risky game on the edge of gravity - is he a nobody, a Nobokov who can never embody the famed writer Nabokov? 

Saviana's current project is a short film that she wrote and directed:

PLAYING NOBOKOV - starring Dean Robinson and Sandra Sackey

DP: Juanito Sanchez

Producer: Matt Holtmeier

We filmed it in Ithaca. NY, completed the post-production with support from a few individuals and institutions, and we are now in the process of submitting it to inter/national FESTIVALS.

You may not know how expensive is to submit a film to ONE festival - it ranges between $50-80. Your support would go towards covering suchs costs. THANKS!!!

Intriguing, right?
