ANOTHER HAPPY DAY, a postpartum depression comedy, is written and directed by Nora Fiffer, stars Lauren Lapkus and features Emmy-nominee Carrie Coon. Produced by Jessie Holder Tourtellotte.
35 year-old Joanna is a total nut. She’s also an artist and new mom. But she’s not making any art and she’s terrible at taking care of her newborn. Worse, her husband Lucien fancies himself to be a mothering expert. Desperate for some company, Joanna tumbles into an unlikely friendship with her estranged aunt Miriam, a reclusive theatre actress. Miriam seems the perfect companion for Joanna — she’s artsy, honest, eccentric, and she hates babies. But all goes haywire when Joanna tries to mother her aunt instead of her baby. Another Happy Day is a tender and tense comedy exploring postpartum depression, intergenerational friendship, and what it means to be family.

Can you talk a little bit about your journey from initial storyboard to screenplay to day zero of production?
Aspiring author here and would love to hear your journey
Hey Nora,
Thanks for joining us 🙂 Lauren is hilarious, can’t wait to check this out.
I’m wondering what some of your favorite parenting-related films are? Both serious and more comedy-related?
Also, how was it like working with a legend like Carrie Coon, both as an actress and as a producer?
