Directed by Ted Melfi, THE STARLING tells the story of one couple's journey through the valley of grief after the loss of their child. Starring Melissa McCarthy, Chris O'Dowd and Kevin Kline, the film grapples with what it means to deal with loss yet also contains McCarthy's trademark humour and heart. In this 1on1, we speak to Melfi about what it means to sit in the grey and why the Starling itself is such a powerful metaphor.

Shot in black-and-white, the film follows two lighthouse keepers (portrayed by Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson) as they are faced with solitude, but start to lose their sanity and become threatened by their worst nightmares. Damian Volpe is a Brooklyn based sound designer, supervisor, and mixer. He is a founding member of Harbor Sound, and a working partner of ((Audience)), a non- profit group dedicated to presenting music and sound art in new contexts, including specifically the use of movie theaters as concert halls.

Damian’s work can be heard in a wide variety of feature films (The Lighthouse, Can You Ever Forgive Me?, Leave No Trace, St. Vincent, Mudbound, Drive, Winter’s Bone, Margin Call, Forty Shades of Blue, Happiness), documentaries (Billy the Kid, Trouble the Waters) and art pieces (Drawing Restraint 9, States of Unbelonging, Last Address). His work can also be heard at the award-winning Gear Platte River Road Archway Monument and at The George Washington Museum and Education Center in Mount Vernon.
