Imogen Poots talks trust, transformation and the female body in Kristen Stewart’s directorial debut

The movie is based on Lidia Yuknavitch’s memoir, and as actress Imogen Poots puts it, it’s about how Yuknavitch, a former swimmer turned writer, took ownership of the challenges others created for her. The film doesn’t simply tell the story of Yuknavitch’s life in order; instead, it presents key moments from her youth and focuses on how she processed and reshaped those experiences through her writing.
