Our conversations with indie filmmakers take a deep dive into who they are as people and how their life experiences have shaped their careers. We provide a platform for indie filmmakers to share their insights, perspectives, thoughts, and ideas to audiences across the world so that others may learn from their successes, their lessons, and their mistakes.
