Ana is Director Stephanie Lemesianou's debut narrative short. Stephanie's inspiration: her mother's childhood in a poverty-stricken home. A three person female cast shines a light on the shared hardship of a community, regardless of age or generation. A time and place where the parameters of poverty is shown here through the simple swap of eggs, milk and flour in exchange for service.
