"I was trying to present the audience with a classic Hollywood romantic comedy, maybe a dirty romantic comedy, but a romantic comedy for the first 45 minutes to an hour," said writer and director Sean Baker.
"One of the defining features of Baker's films is they are grounded in a specific corner of the world... the realist details and specificity of people's lives are the lifeblood of his films."
"Baker had long dreamed of finding a project he could shoot in Russian and Armenian Brooklyn neighborhoods, which became the cultural backdrop for 'Anora.'"
