Fan Wonderland talks to Braid Director, Writer & Producer Mitzi Peirone and Braid star Sarah Hay. TJ, Mitzi and Sarah discuss how Braid came to be, becoming the first film to be funded by cryptocurrency and how Mitzi and the cast dealt with the backlash surrounding it, as well as how a young director like Mitzi has an approach that is exciting and unique. Mitzi discusses her film, directing and writing style and why Mitzi approached Braid “differently” to most other films and what Hollywood would consider “normal”.
