Biography

Andrea Dorfman, Canadian scriptwriter and director, studied art and design in Nova Scotia and then worked as a camera assistant. She also wrote, directed and edited her own short experimental films. In 1998 she debuted with the medium-length film Swerve and immediately went on to make the documentary drama Nine – both were presented with the Most Promising New Director award at the Atlantic Film Festival and have been screened at other international festivals. She made her first feature-length film Parsley Days in 2000 which brought her several awards, including Best First Feature at the Sudbury Cinéfest festival in 2000. "Making Love That Boy was a wonderful experience with an extraordinary group of people. The film is a tribute to that time of life when, at twenty-one, you go from thinking that you know everything, to falling in love and discovering that you know nothing at all", says Andrea Dorfman.
