Cora (Megan Stalter, HACKS) goes home to win back her girlfriend, and soon realizes it’s much more than her love life that needs salvaging.
After moving to LA to chase her dreams of becoming a musician with limited success, chaotic, poly-bisexual, Cora (Megan Stalter, HACKS), makes a surprise trip back to Portland to try to win back her girlfriend, Justine (Jojo T. Gibbs, CIVIL WAR) when she senses their open relationship might be on the rocks.
In a moment of desperation, she heads back to her hometown of Portland, Oregon on a mission to fix her shaky relationship. Embarking on a wild journey, she confronts many self-induced roadblocks including a new woman living in her girlfriend’s house, a lost pet, and a pansexual orgy. Will Cora be able to salvage her relationship, and her career?
Margaret Cho, Darrell Hammond, Manny Jacinto, Heather Morris, Ayden Mayeri and Chelsea Peretti complete the cast of this hilarious, and totally relatable, comedy.
“CORA BORA proves a sensational cringe comedy, spiked with wicked humor, skin-crawling awkward scenarios, and an ardent — if wounded — heart. Deftly dancing from brash jokes to tender dialogue, Stalter reveals a riveting range and stirring screen presence. Simply put, it’s easy to fall for CORA BORA.” – Mashable

The Fairy Tales Queer Film Festival would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge that we operate on the traditional territories of the people of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta, which includes the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprising the Siksika, Piikani, and Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Wesley First Nations) this land is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region III. We acknowledge the traditional caregivers of this land and the importance of a commitment to continued decolonization of our work for the dignity and equity of all. We would like also recognize that Treaty 7 is about a relationship we all actively share in, as settlers and original peoples. A relationship needs to be open, honest, respectful, mutually beneficial and grounded in meaningful reconciliation.
