On this episode we join strangers who arrive in small but equally strange communities and how they shape or are shaped by them. Unfortunately we are not talking ROAD HOUSE, but we do have a 1938 French film in PORT OF SHADOWS going up against Lars Von Trier's DOGVILLE. So... basically the same thing as ROAD HOUSE. This pairing has been inspired by the new release OCTOBER GALE from writer/director Ruba Nadda, who joins us to talk about her work.
Critically and internationally acclaimed Canadian writer and director, Ruba Nadda has written and directed over a dozen shorts, including Aadan, Unsettled, and Do Nothing. Ruba's films have been shown over 500 times in film festivals around the world with over 30 retrospectives of her work. In 2005, Ruba wrote and directed her first feature film, Sabah, which had Atom Egoyan as an executive producer and starred Arsinee Khanjian.Ruba's 2nd feature film, Cairo Time was filmed on location in Egypt. Cairo Time is a love letter to a city intertwined with a love story about a woman. It stars Patricia Clarkson and Alexander Siddig. Cairo Time had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, where it won Best Canadian Feature Film and has enchanting audiences in cinemas worldwide.
John talks with Ruba Nadda about the film she directed, Cairo Time, a love story for grown upsThe film is currently showing at the Independent Film Festival in Boston.
