YEM sits down with Aitch Alberto, writer and director of new feature film Aristotle and Dante Discover the Universe, for an exclusive interview! If you haven’t seen this movie yet (and you really should) here is a little overview – it is a film adapted from the book by Benjamin Alire Sáenz, about two teenage boys who meet over the summer at their local pool and instantly have a connection despite their different interests. The story is told over the course of a few summers as the boys discover more about themselves, their families and each other.


 


We talked with Alberto about how she wanted to tell this story and how she wanted to display these characters. We also discussed the challenges of working on a movie like this and the logistical as well as social aspects of the project. She talks about working as a team and what the behind-the-scenes environment looked like while shooting.


 


Thank you so much again to Aitch Alberto, for sitting down with us and sharing about this beautiful project! For more info on this new movie follow her on Instagram @aitchalberto and make sure to leave a like and comment on this interview!
