Metal Detector

How much do you need to know about someone to know that you love them? Do you need to know who they've been, or is it enough to know who they are now. Expats Zadie and Aaron meet by chance in a Paris metro, kicking off a romance that can last only as long as they believe in it and each other. (In English with French subtitles.)

Director Biography - Jennifer Fox Geraghty

After graduating from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts with a BFA in Drama, Jennifer Fox Geraghty began her career as an actress, working in both New York and Los Angeles. After a serious accident, Jennifer moved from in front of the camera to behind, beginning as a screenwriter and progressing to director and producer.

In 2010, Jennifer moved from her native New York to Paris, France with her dog Moxie and a renewed passion for storytelling. Since then, she has won 2015 MIPTV's "New Producer to Watch" for her television pilot, "L'Amour (or less...)," which she wrote and directed. She has worked on numerous creative projects, including web series, podcasts, and screenwriting feature-length films. Jennifer also works as an accent and acting coach, helping French actors navigate their way through American cinema.

Made on a shoestring budget, and completed in January 2020, "Metal Detector" marks Jennifer's cinematic directorial debut.
