About

Sasha Gordon is Russian-born award-winning writer/director and composer. Her debut comedy feature won awards at multiple festivals (among them Austin, Santa Barbara, Bentonville, Woodstock) before being released by Samuel Goldwyn to a fantastic audience and critical reception. The LA Times called IT HAD TO BE YOU  “A memorable romantic comedy that stands to bring back the genre’s good name … as funny, endearing and enjoyably off-kilter as its adorable star, Cristin Milioti.” Sasha was subsequently named one of “25 Screenwriters to Watch” by Moviemaker Magazine.  Sasha has scored over 50 features and television shows (among them the Oscar-winning “God Of Love” and Amazon’s Emmy-winning “Gortimer Gibbons”.) Sasha’s pilot MAGGIE, a dramedy about motherhood, premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival and went on to win best pilot at South by South West. Sasha lives in New York with her husband and baby girl.

Masha From Russia

MASHA FROM RUSSIA is a coming of age dramedy about a Russian family immigrating to New York in the early 90's. The film centers around Masha, a nerdy, socially clueless 13-year-old whose transition into puberty is further complicated by her limited understanding of the language and culture around her.
