Director Rachel Lee Goldenberg wanted to tell Whitney Wolfe Herd’s "inspiring" story as a woman navigating a male-dominated environment from a co-founder at Tinder to the founder of dating app, Bumble.
Speaking exclusively to RadioTimes.com, Goldenberg explained that she set out to create as true-to-life a film as possible with the extensive evidence available online.
"There's a ton of stuff out there. There are interviews with everyone involved, tons of articles. We pored over her court documents. The lawsuit is available online. We literally stalked everyone's old social media. We found old Vines that people had made to try to piece together like, 'Oh, OK. So, they were a couple here'."
Naturally, some of the story had to be fictionalised due to the gaps in the complex puzzle of Wolfe Herd’s life. She added: “There’s some story shaping, but making sure that was all on a bed of as much deep research as we could do."
"I was reading interviews and articles with her and her talking about both having some really hard times and then also her own complicity of feeling like, initially, there was only room for one woman at the table,” she continues. "And feeding into the boys' club to get ahead.
“I just related so hard to that and thought she found such a beautiful way to change her behaviour and move in a path forward. It just felt like not only a film to me, but also a film that I felt like I need to make this."
