We spotlight and interview many of the top new filmmakers of today. So many interview shows focus only on people who have already made it to the A-List, but we talk to directors, writers, and producers who are on the ground right now, making their way in the film industry. Lots of laughs, discussion of cinema, and insights into the creative process.
