MY YEAR OF DICKS
My Year of Dicks is a hilarious and provocative work of animation thirty years in the making. Icelandic director Sara Gunnarsdóttir is known for her honest, emotional artwork, and creator/writer Pamela Ribon has been telling unusual stories with unusual heroes for a long time. This is an adaptation of her mortifying memoir, which NPR called “brain-breakingly funny.” This teenage heart-stomp manages to put you right back into some of young love’s most relatable, uncomfortable moments with humanity, humor, and heart.Director's Bio:Sara Gunnarsdóttir is a director and artist who has created animation, music videos, and original artwork for film and television, including Marielle Heller’s “The Diary of a Teenage Girl,” and HBO’s Emmy-nominated “The Case Against Adnan Sayed.” Born and raised in Reykjavik, Iceland, Sara received her BFA from the Icelandic Academy of the Arts.
