Brit Marling, Co-Writer and Star of Another Earth

Brit Marling first met Mike Cahill while attending Georgetown. One of Mike’s short films won the Georgetown Film Festival. Brit saw it, introduced herself and soon began appearing in Mike’s other shorts. It’s been a good working relationship: Brit stars, Mike directs, and together they collaborate on the screenplays.

One day, they decide to take up temporary residence at Brit’s mom’s house in Connecticut to make Another Earth.“We could shoot there for free, we could drive her car for free, and she’d feed us,” Brit recalls. “We just started.”
