Allison P. Davis on how Zola’s Twitter thread became a movie

Bu bölüm hakkında

<p>A&rsquo;Ziah King, also known as Zola, went viral on Twitter back in 2015. Her series of 148 tweets detailed a mostly true story about a trip down to Florida for an exotic-dancing gig that went awry. A film, titled &lsquo;Zola&rsquo; and directed by Janicza Bravo, has now been made based on that viral Twitter thread.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Allison P. Davis, a features writer at <a href="https://apple.news/AXAnZN6x5StuFaVRUc6y_uA">New York Magazine</a>, recently profiled Zola. Davis details how many different interests tried to take control of Zola&rsquo;s story during the filmmaking process &mdash;&nbsp;and how Zola feels the final product centers her voice. Davis&rsquo;s article, called &ldquo;The Real Zola,&rdquo; is available to read (and listen to) in Apple News+.</p>
