What This Means For Nonnas

Nonnas Is Made By Family About Family

Nonnas is as much about food as it is a movie about family and culture. In an interview, Vaughn revealed that the idea of love and culture being passed down from the sharing of food and get-togethers is what drew him to the project in the first place. While the movie tackles the family theme on-screen, it also shares a behind-the-scenes connection with a real-life family, being made by the married filmmaking duo, Stephen Chbosky and Liz Maccie, who unintentionally made Nonnas a family project.
