100 Nights of Hero director Julia Jackman talks queering the fairytale and the impact of casting Charli xcx
This movie is based on Isabel Greenberg’s graphic novel, The One Hundred Nights of Hero, which was inspired by the classic Middle Eastern story, One Thousand and One Nights. It centers on Cherry, whose husband, Jerome, tests her loyalty by leaving her alone for 100 nights with his playful friend, Manfred. Over the next 90 minutes, a vibrant and chaotic story of love, secrets, and desire unfolds between Cherry, Manfred, and Cherry’s maid, Hero.
