Hi! My name is Suzi Yoonessi. I'm an Iranian-American Director who grew up in a Riot Grrrl band - I love jelly pens, cootie catchers, and exploring the many emotional chambers of the heart. My second feature, UNLOVABLE, premiered at SXSW where it won a special jury prize, and opens Nov 2, 2018. AMA!

Hi I’m Suzi Yoonessi, director and executive producer of the new dramedy UNLOVABLE, which is currently in theaters and available on VOD and Digital HD on Nov. 2, 2018.  Based on comedian Charlene deGuzman’s real-life experiences with sex and love addiction, the film stars Charlene deGuzman, John Hawkes, and Melissa Leo.

You may have seen my irreverent series “Olive and Mocha”, which was Funny or Die’s 1st Annual Make Em LAFF award winner, and was once the number 1 video on Reddit for a week. I directed the feature Dear Lemon Lima, The Dead Girls Detective Agency and Daphne and Velma (the girls from Scooby Doo's origins movie!) and branded, short and commercial spots for Funny or Die, Condé Nast, Amy Poehler’s Smart Girls, Portal A, Retrofit and Super Deluxe.

I'll be back at 11 AM PT to answer your questions. AMA!
