Pretending to Fly
See "Pretending to Fly" at its NYC premiere before it heads to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August!
Summer 2020, NYC. Roommates Kaitlyn and Frances, months into the COVID lockdown, escape onto their rooftop, trying to hold the pieces of their friendship – and their sanity – together. Finding escapism in the tales of Carla Horowitz, a Women Airforce Service Pilot in WWII, and the main subject of Kaitlyn’s thesis, what present day truths will the women uncover through immersion in the past?
Based on actual interviews with Carla and residents of NYC during the pandemic, “Pretending to Fly” weaves fiction and non-fiction into a re-imagined documentary narrative that explores the unspoken sides of history.
