In Babygirl, the very Irish director Macdara Vallely tells a very New York tale about Lena (Yanis Ynoa), a Nuyorican teen, who finds herself in the middle of a romantic triangle when her mother's lover (Flaco Navaja) turns his unwelcome attention to her.

To inaugurate our video coverage of the fest, we met up with Macdara at the film's opening night party. The interview is below.
