Send us a textWelcome to our third and final episode for Sundance 2025, featuring two very timely feature length documentaries.Third Act is a documentary that follows the life of Asian American artist and activist Robert A. Nakamura (aka the godfather of Asian American media), while grappling with his recent Parkinson's diagnosis. We were joined by filmmaker (and Robert's son) Tadashi Nakamura and one of the subjects of the film/his mother, Karen Ishizuka, to discuss making this film as a family, the universal nature of grief and loss, and Tad's son Prince's potential run for president in 2040 (jk but also not).Heightened Scrutiny follows civil rights lawyer Chase Strangio's courtroom battle against anti-trans laws, while exposing the media's role in impacting public perception of transgender rights. Director Sam Feder shares his rush to get this film out as soon as possible, the importance of being able to give a voice to children in a conversation about them, and how this film is his way of showing the younger generations that we tried/are trying.Follow Third Act on IGFollow filmmaker Tadashi Nakamura on IGFollow director Sam Feder on IG Support the showThanks for listening and for your support!

With 1990's Paris Is Burning, director Jennie Livingston spent 7 years examining the drag scene in New York in the 1980s, leading to a groundbreaking film that is still discussed today. And in 2020, director Sam Feder brought Disclosure to Netflix, chronicling the experience of trans filmmakers and actors in today's Hollywood.

[REBROADCAST FROM JUNE 18, 2020] Director Sam Feder joins us to discuss his Netflix documentary "Disclosure," which discusses the history of depictions of trans people in Hollywood throughout the decades.
Thomas and Tranna discuss the idea of being unremarkable and what it would be like to move through the world if there wasn’t so much pressure on trans and gender non-conforming folks to disclose and explain their identity. Who better to join the exchange than Sam Feder, the brilliant director of the groundbreaking Netflix documentary, Disclosure. Celebrating the film’s first year anniversary, the conversation with Sam takes a look at how Hollywood is changing and how decades of negative, dehumanizing representation in film and television has affected the trans community. Thomas connects with artist, author, director and overall superstar Chella Man, to talk about representation in social media. Plus, Tranna shares a totally off-brand obsession that may leave you questioning her taste level.

Joe and Sam discuss transgender representation in media, and how we can all work together to raise more inclusive kids. Be sure to go learn all about the documentary at http://www.disclosurethemovie.com/ and click below to go watch the movie on Netflix: https://www.netflix.com/title/81284247 DISCLOSURE is an unprecedented, eye-opening look at transgender depictions in film and television, revealing how Hollywood simultaneously reflects and manufactures our deepest anxieties about gender. Leading trans thinkers and creatives, including Laverne Cox, Lilly Wachowski, Yance Ford, Mj Rodriguez, Jamie Clayton, and Chaz Bono, share their reactions and resistance to some of Hollywood's most beloved moments. Grappling with films like A Florida Enchantment (1914), Dog Day Afternoon, The Crying Game, and Boys Don't Cry, and with shows like The Jeffersons, The L-Word, and Pose, they trace a history that is at once dehumanizing, yet also evolving, complex, and sometimes humorous. What emerges is a fascinating story of dynamic interplay between trans representation on screen, society's beliefs, and the reality of trans lives. Reframing familiar scenes and iconic characters in a new light, director Sam Feder invites viewers to confront unexamined assumptions, and shows how what once captured the American imagination now elicit new feelings. Disclosure provokes a startling revolution in how we see and understand trans people. #DisclosureNetflix #beabetterdad This episode of the podcast is brought to you by Snuffy!
