In this episode, Professor Brian Hu from SDSU helps us tackle the world of Asian and Asian American cinema as they travel throughout various locales. Hu's position as a film scholar and Artistic Director of the San Diego Asian Film Festival leads us through conversations about how people connect with and discover Asian culture. We touch on how regionality and heritage influence people's interactions with Asian and Asian American media. We also discuss the shifting definitions of Asian American and how that plays out in AAPI/AANHPI film festival creation. Hu guides us through the process of film curation and circulation at AAPI/AANHPI film festivals. In the end, we ask Hu what to look forward to for the upcoming 2025 SDAFF on November 6-15.  Our discussion with Hu leaves us wondering what the future holds for Asian and Asian American media as global industries become more invested in Asian works like K-pop, anime, and Labubus.  Here are some of the references from this episode, for those who want to dig a little deeper:Academic Readings:Worldly Desires: Cosmopolitanism and Cinema in Hong Kong and TaiwanIdentities in Motion: Asian American Film and VideoMaking Asian American Film and Video History, Institutions, MovementsDoogie Kameāloha, M.D.: Gen Z to AAPI Direct Marketing and Its Effects on Native Hawaiians (chapter) Pop Cosmopolitanism: Mapping Cultural Flows in an Age of Media Convergence (chapter)Names and Locations:Payal KapadiaAnna May WongNancy KwanLisa LuJames ShigetaPeter X FengJun OkadaJohn WooDante BoscoIngyu OhDaniel Dae KimBruce LeeJackie ChanHayao MiyazakiStudio GhibliSatoshi KonBig Bang (group)Ang LeeSeafood CityFilm Festivals:San Diego Asian Film FestivalLos Angeles Asian Pacific Film FestivalCineconFestival de CannesBusan Film FestivalGolden Horse Film FestivalSan Francisco Silent Film Festival Berlin Film FestivalMovies, Shows, and Media:A Night of Knowing NothingGodzilla Minus OneUlanHard BoiledFlower Drum SongAll We Imagine As LightNe ZhaNe Zha 2The Untamed (TV Series)Pulp Fiction Chan is MissingButterfly (TV Series)The DebutUltraman seriesGundam seriesThe Fabulous Filipino BrothersSuperstore (TV Series)Destroy All MonstersThe MatrixJoy Luck ClubTFCHaikyu!!

Matt is joined by film data analyst Stephen Follows to dig into one of Hollywood's most ridiculous phenomenons, the film festival standing ovation. Stephen gathered over 500 reported standing ovations across five of the world's biggest film festivals to see whether the length of applause tells us anything meaningful about a film's future (02:26).

SEASON 2 - EPISODE 163 - Iris Prize LGTBQ+ Film Festival - with Lewis Bayley In this special episode of the Team Deakins Podcast, we speak with Lewis Bayley, Industry Coordinator for the Iris Prize LGBTQ+ Film Festival. Lewis invited us to speak with him about filmmaking earlier this year, and what you'll hear is that recorded conversation. We had the pleasure of discussing many topics with Lewis, such as the overall importance of film festivals and our longtime efforts giving back to younger generations of filmmakers. Additionally, we share a few work stories from our long careers, Roger gives a preview of what to expect in his upcoming memoir, Reflections, and James reveals the game she played with director Martin Scorsese while we were shooting KUNDUN in the Moroccan desert. The Iris Prize LGBTQ+ Film Festival is hosted annually in Cardiff, Wales with talks, panels, and screenings of shorts and features highlighting the myriad of experiences within the global LGBTQ+ community, and we were happy to be a small part of their 19th edition.  - This episode is sponsored by Aputure & Sandstorm

Ein Hochstapler räumt mit ihrem Film einen Preise nach dem anderen ab. Bei Deep Doku erzählen Julius und Moritz davon, wie ihr Animationsfilm von einem Mann aus den USA gestohlen wurde. Über zwei Jahre arbeiten die Berliner Filmstudenten an ihrem Film "Butty". Sie wollen den Sprung in die Filmwelt schaffen. Die Absage eines Filmfestivals können sie kaum fassen: Sie werden disqualifiziert, da "Butty" bereits online zu finden sei. Das Werk eines US-Filmemachers. Julius und Moritz beginnen zu recherchieren und finden heraus: Samuel Felinton hat "Butty" mutmaßlich aus dem Netz geklaut, die Credits verändert und verkauft ihn seitdem öffentlich als sein Werk. Felinton räumt damit reihenweise Filmpreise auf der ganzen Welt ab und lässt sich in Talkshows und auf dem roten Teppich dafür feiern. In den USA wird er sogar als künftiger Oscar-Gewinner bezeichnet. Wer ist dieser talentierte Hochstapler? Wie zieht man ihn zur Rechenschaft? Und wie verhindert man, dass er weiter lügt? Moritz und Julius wollen ihn finden. Mit einem Kamerateam fliegen sie Undercover in die USA, um ihn zur Rede zu stellen. Autoren: Julius Drost, Moritz Henneberg und Oliver Martin Ton: Benjamin Ihnow und Katrin Witt Regie: Roman Ruthardt Redaktion: Johannes Nichelmann Produktion: rbb in Zusammenarbeit mit Flimmer und nbStudios Hier findet ihr die TV-Doku "Der talentierte Mr. F." zur Podcastfolge: https://1.ard.de/felinton?pc=deepdoku Und zum Schluss noch ein Podcast-Tipp: "Der Bruch" https://1.ard.de/der-bruch

Janicke Askevold unpacks her journey from shooting Together Alone with friends during COVID to premiering her new feature Solomamma at the Locarno Film Festival. The Norwegian actor-turned-director traces how a one-page pitch led to full Norwegian Film Institute backing and a 25-day Oslo shoot that balanced long summer daylight, short 8-hour workdays, and a five-year-old co-star.Solomamma follows Edith, a journalist and single mother who secretly seeks out her sperm donor - an encounter that evolves into love, deceit, and a search for self. Co-produced across Lithuania, Latvia, and Finland, with sound design by a collaborator of Ruben Östlund, the film examines modern solo motherhood in the wake of Norway's 2020 legalization of single-parent conception.Janicke's cinematic influences span Fritz Lang's expressionism, Billy Wilder's Sunset Boulevard, and Maren Ade's Toni Erdmann. On craft, she champions preparation, the power of casting chemistry tests that “made her cry,” and editing as the stage where “you can make a whole new film.”Her advice to young filmmakers: trust your instincts, start sooner, send the story out—and don't wait for permission.What Movies Are You Watching?Introducing the Past Present Feature Film Festival, a new showcase celebrating cinematic storytelling across time. From bold proof of concept shorts to stand out new films lighting up the circuit, to overlooked features that deserve another look. Sponsored by the Past Present Feature podcast and Leica Camera.

Most filmmakers assume film festivals are where the deals happen — but the truth is, only a select few festivals actually help you sell your movie. In this episode, I break down the handful of A+ festivals that carry real industry weight, how genre festivals fit into the mix, and why film markets are still where the real money is made. Perfect for any indie filmmaker navigating the festival circuit.

Mercedes Bryce Morgan unpacks the whirlwind making of Bone Lake, an 18-day Atlanta shoot that battled storms, injuries, and lost gear before completing its night-boat climax on a Los Angeles soundstage. After a Fantastic Fest premiere and Deadline-breaking international sales, the erotic survival thriller heads to U.S. theaters with buzzy audience reactions and a proudly “fun, commercial, popcorn” spirit.Mercedes traces her path from mini DV Star Wars shorts and USC to festival features, describing her taste as a mix of Oldboy's devastation and Amélie's heart. Other past influences include Barbarians, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, The House of Yes, Funny Games, and The One I Love. Her TIFF-premiering Fixation (2022) sparked her love for erotic thrillers.On craft, she argues the best twists are guessable seconds before they land, and test screenings help her fine-tune which parts of the mystery viewers might sense without solving it too soon. Her advice to young filmmakers: embrace constraints as boot camp, stick with collaborators who love the work, design for the audience experience, and make sure you enjoy the day-to-day… because the process is the life.What Movies Are You Watching?Introducing the Past Present Feature Film Festival, a new showcase celebrating cinematic storytelling across time.

THE SWIMMER (1968) We dive deep in to The Swimmer and discuss and analyze, maybe just a little bit the glorious film directed by Frank Perry, based on a screenplay by Eleanor Perry, from the 12 page short story by John Cheever. "Well-off ad man Ned Merrill (Burt Lancaster) is visiting a friend when he notices the abundance of backyard pools that populate their upscale suburb. Ned suddenly decides that he'd like to travel the eight miles back to his own home by simply swimming across every pool in town."If you're reading this I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.

Nina Knag's debut feature, Don't Call Me Mama, which marks her arrival as a bold new voice in cinema, just premiered at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Crystal Globe competition. She tackles the taboo subject of relationships between older women and younger asylum seekers through the lens of complex, unapologetic female anti-heroes. Drawing from personal insight and the influence of trailblazing female filmmakers, Knag crafts a story where the setting becomes an active force in shaping narrative and theme. She emphasizes the importance of deep collaboration with actors, embracing improvisation and authenticity to capture the complex realities of human relationships. For Knag, filmmaking is as much about the journey as the final cut—each challenge, misstep, and success feeding into a creative process that demands vulnerability, resilience, and a refusal to compromise the heart of the story.Past films discussed include The Hunt (2012, dir. Thomas Vinterberg), After the Wedding (2006, dir. Susanne Bier), Fish Tank (2009, dir. Andrea Arnold), and the short Wasp (2003, dir. Andrea Arnold).What Movies Are You Watching?Introducing the Past Present Feature Film Festival, a new showcase celebrating cinematic storytelling across time.

Im Vorfeld gab's Streit um das Gerüst hinter der Leinwand auf der Piazza Grande – aber während des Festivals ist vor allem das im Fokus, was drauf projiziert wird: Film. Zum 78. Mal findet das «kleinste der grossen Filmfestivals» am Lago Maggiore statt. Wo ist der Platz des Kinos, wenn die Flut der Bilder nicht abreisst? Eine Frage, die der künstlerische Leiter Giona A. Nazzaro dem diesjährigen Festival voranstellte. Welche Antwort geben die Filme im internationalen Wettbewerb? Viel mehr Publikum und Aufmerksamkeit als der Wettbewerb zieht in Locarno allerdings das Programm auf der Piazza Grande an. Ein Spagat, den das Festival Locarno seit jeher macht. Funktioniert das immer noch – und welche Filme gaben zu reden? Darüber diskutiert Brigitte Häring mit den Filmjournalisten Selim Petersen (SRF) und mit Patrick Wellinski (Deutschlandfunk).

Luisa Ziaja spricht mit Oliver Ressler über seine künstlerische Praxis, insbesondere über seine Videos und Videoinstallationen der letzten Jahre. Diese setzen sich mit dem Klimakollaps und aktivistischer Organisierung dagegen aus, geben Einblicke in Klimaaktivismen und laden ein zu einem Nachdenken darüber, wie Gesellschaft demokratischer und inklusiver gestaltet werden könnte.

This week we're talking with two outstanding filmmakers from this year's 2025 Los Angeles Diversity Film Festival. Lyla Mzayek discusses her film, The Rain Lady, a beautiful love letter to immigrant mothers. Lyla talks about her approach to the project, her courage to make it, and how it became a family affair. We also interviewed Faranak Sahafian from Iran.

Submitting to film festivals without a strategy is the fastest way to burn cash. In this episode, I explain how to choose the right festivals for your indie film, why big festivals like Sundance are a long shot, and when you're better off skipping festivals entirely and heading to film markets instead. Perfect for indie filmmakers looking to save money and actually reach an audience.

Thom Powers, a renowned documentary programmer for the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), former artistic director of DocNYC, and host of the “Pure Nonfiction” podcast, delves into his journey from filmmaker to influential festival curator. Thom shares behind-the-scenes details about programming films like “The Bibi Files,” directed by Alexis Bloom, and Rebecca Huntt's “Beba,” highlighting the unique power of documentaries to engage audiences. Thom emphasizes the importance of community within the filmmaking ecosystem, explores the nuanced selection process at major film festivals, and candidly reflects on the future challenges and opportunities facing documentary distribution today. Thom also reveals his all-time favorite documentary, the 1989 Oscar-winning “Hotel Terminus: The Life and Times of Klaus Barbie,” directed by Marcel Ophuls. This conversation is a true masterclass for filmmakers eager to understand how documentaries find their audience and why curators like Powers are pivotal in shaping the documentary landscape.Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, iHeart, and at pastpresentfeature.comWhat Movies Are You Watching?Introducing the Past Present Feature Film Festival, a new showcase celebrating cinematic storytelling across time.

I can't quite believe it, but here we are — the 800th episode of the Tough Girl Podcast! In this special solo episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes for a personal catch-up and reflection on everything that's happened so far in 2025 — from January through to August. I talk about what life has looked like lately (yes, still living at home with my parents!), working part-time at AIM Health, the adventures I've been on, the challenges I've faced, and the exciting things coming up next. This episode is a bit of everything: gear chat (flat-lay photos and a new Atom Pack!), health updates (peri-menopause, gut health, strength training, and more), financial planning (Patreon, pensions, broken laptops!), plus reflections on my time walking the English Camino, Snowdonia Slate Trail, and tackling the GR20 in Corsica — which was honestly tougher than the Marathon des Sables. I'm also talking about my motivations for taking on the GR10, what I've learned in 10 years of podcasting, and why the mission — to increase the amount of female role models in the media especially in relation to adventure and physical challenges— is stronger than ever. Thank you for being here with me on this journey. Whether you've listened from the start or are just finding the show now, I'm so incredibly grateful. This is a celebration of us — of consistency, resilience, growth, and dreaming big.

This week we're talking with two outstanding filmmakers from this year's 2025 Los Angeles Diversity Film Festival. Lee Ott discusses their journey to filmmaking and stop-motion animation, which led them to their directorial debut, Dragfox. A wildly impressive short film loaded with heart, design, and a fox in… you guessed it, DRAG! The short also features the voice-over work of Sir Ian McKellan. We also interview Bijon, a remarkable filmmaker from Bangladesh. Bijon chats about the Bengali film community and his jaw-dropping short film, A Thing About Kashem. His approach to direction, and the brilliant use of color in his film, are all subjects of conversation. Both Lee and Bijon also partake in a Gimme Three segment, where they each share three film recommendations!Join us at LADFF 2025, where you can see both of these fantastic films. Tickets are on sale now at LADFF.com❗️SEND US A TEXT MESSAGE ❗️Support the showSign up for our Patreon for exclusive Bonus Content.Follow the podcast on Instagram @gimmethreepodcastYou can keep up with Bella on Instagram @portraitofacinephile or Letterboxd You can keep up with Nick: on Instagram @nicholasybarra, on Twitter (X) @nicholaspybarra, or on LetterboxdShout out to contributor and producer Sonja Mereu.
