As a lot more people move here, let me reintroduce myself. I'm a filmmaker, I mostly make silly jokes, talk about films,the industry, supporting the indie sector and human rights. I direct, produce, develop and edit. I'm looking forward to building a new community here 👋🏻

It's rare I become shy but I got to meet and shake hands with my favourite director Park Chan-wook this evening and I don't remember what I said because I was gushing like a fan girl but it was such an honour to meet a master and another legend Lee Byung-hun who is just the coolest.

Important & impassioned speech from Sean Baker about the state of the indie film sector & what needs to be done to support the artists who put years of their lives into films. I know this will resonate with all my fellow indie filmmakers.
