The daughter of former President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama added that she was “so excited” to be at the film fest in support of her latest project.
“I’ve never done anything like this, so [I’m] like a little bit terrified but mostly just excited,” she said.
On the red carpet, the former first daughter wore a gray wool coat over a striped button-down top, ruffled miniskirt, skinny gray scarf and burgundy boots.
The Harvard alum’s short film is about a man who grieves the loss of his mother as he navigates her last request.
“The film is about lost objects and lonely people and forgiveness and regret,” she said in a “Meet the Artist” video . “But I also think it works hard to uncover where tenderness and closeness can exist in those things.”
Malia added that she hopes the movie will help audience members “feel a bit less lonely, or at least reminds you not to forget about the people who are.”
The first-time director also chose to drop her famous last name from the movie’s credits, going only by Malia Ann.
no she's prettier than Michelle she doesn't even look like Michelle when people said they saw no pictures of Michelle pregnant or or the girls when they're babies and then later on you finally find pictures of her that they kind of photoshopped but you see any pictures of the as tiny babies I didn't see any I still have my suspicions and what I believe look what Joan Rivers said they said she was joking play it if you can find the video she wasn't joking she was agitated and totally aggravated no joke there
