Brit Marling chats ’The OA’ secrets: ’There are a lot of theories about the story she is telling’

Actress and producer Brit Marling chats with Gold Derby editor Rob Licuria about ’The OA’ secrets: ’There are a lot of theories about the story she is telling.’ In “The OA,” Marling plays Prairie Johnson, a blind woman who resurfaces with her sight inexplicably restored after having been missing for seven years. We learn that Prairie was abducted by a scientist experimenting on people who have had near death experiences, which forms the narrative of the story that she tells to a group of four teenage boys and their algebra teacher (Phyllis Smith) over the eight-episode first season.
