A Delightful Story of Love and Self-Discovery

Directed by Hannah Pearl Utt, known for her work in “Before You Know It,” and written by the talented Rhianon Jones, “Cora Bora” tells the story of Cora, played by the breakout star of “Hacks,” Megan Stalter. Cora, a struggling musician in Los Angeles, finds herself on the brink of losing her girlfriend. Desperate to turn her life around, she embarks on a journey back to her hometown of Portland, Oregon.

Excitement Surrounding Megan Stalter’s Leading Role

Hannah Pearl Utt, the film’s director, expressed her excitement about Stalter’s leading role, stating, “I’m thrilled for audiences to get to see Meg in a leading role and to fall for her character the way I have. I feel lucky to have such warm and collaborative partners in Brainstorm as we find our way into audiences’ hearts.” Utt’s endorsement of Stalter’s performance only adds to the anticipation surrounding the film.
