“It attacks your senses,” declares Helena Howard of “Madeline’s Madeline.” The young actress made her film debut in Josephine Decker’s experimental movie, and the role has generated ample buzz for Howard, including nominations from the Gotham Awards and Independent Spirit Awards.
Howard plays the titular Madeline, a young girl dealing with unspecified mental health issues and finds a vital outlet in acting. She is the youngest member of an experimental physical theater company, under the direction of a revered director Evangeline (Molly Parker). Evangeline mines the pain of her new muse Madeline to create her newest work, fueling tensions between the teen and her mother Regina (Miranda July).
