In this episode we welcome filmmaker Kim Albright, director of With Love and a Major Organ, and producer Madeleine Davis in conversation with VIFF programmer Tom Charity.
Struggling artist by night, virtual insurance broker by day, Anabel has a heart problem: it’s just too big for this world. Rejected and derided by her more sophisticated “friends”, Anabel falls for George, a stranger with a penchant for reading yesterday’s newspaper with all the bad news redacted. But George still lives with his overly protective mum, and both will take some persuading that Anabel is his heart’s desire. Filmed right here in Vancouver, Kim Albright’s directorial debut strikes a lo-(sci-)fi surrealist vibe vaguely reminiscent of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It’s whimsical, unpredictable, but more than anything it’s true enough to hit close to home.

In this episode we welcome Meredith Hama-Brown, director of the feature film Seagrass, in conversation with Sonja Baksa, Programmer + Program Lead at VIFF
Having decamped to a Gabriola Island couples’ retreat in a last-ditch attempt to save their crumbling marriage, preoccupied Judith (Ally Maki) and Steve (Luke Roberts) leave their young daughters to their own devices. In turn, 11-year-old Stephanie (Nyha Breitkreuz) quickly ditches six-year-old Emmy (Remy Marthaller) in favour of a pack of unruly teens and their accompanying temptations. Abandoned and adrift, the introverted Emmy grows fixated with an eerie cave and convinced that her late grandmother has been conjured as an unseen ghost.
Drawing from her own childhood experiences, writer-director Meredith Hama-Brown demonstrates a profound talent for eliciting unspeakably nuanced, frequently heartbreaking performances from Breitkreuz and Marthaller. Likewise, she deftly investigates the unique tensions of Judith and Steve’s interracial marriage (including her infatuation with another man). All the while, Norm Li’s highly observant cinematography provides a practically mesmerizing degree of intimacy. A deftly orchestrated, deeply moving portrait of a family at the brink of implosion, Seagrass sees Hama-Brown exude compassion and conviction in an accomplished debut.
Meredith Hama-Brown is an actress, producer, and director. She is best known for her short Broke Bunny (2018), which won the Telus Sea to Sky Award at the Vancouver International Film Festival. With this short, she also won Best Narrative Film Award at Las Cruces International Film Festival and Best Film Award at the Future of Film Show. In 2020, Brown was selected for the TIFF Filmmaker Lab and was awarded the Canada Goose Fellowship for her first feature film, Seagrass (2023).

In this episode, we’re throwing it back to a creator talk from the 2021 Festival, with one of the filmmakers behind the documentary My Name is Pauli Murray.
Co-directors Julie Cohen and Betsy West received an Academy Award nomination for their documentary RBG, on the life and career of late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. It was from RBG that they first learned about their next subject – the late Pauli Murray – a non-binary Black lawyer, priest, poet, and LGBTQ and civil rights activist who was instrumental in shaping landmark litigation—and consciousness—around race and gender equity.
Speaking to Canadian writer/director Kevin Eastwood, Cohen details the daunting process of unpacking Murray’s life and work via hundreds of documents and audio recordings; and, ultimately, how they gave shape to the multifaceted identity of this civil rights and women’s movement trailblazer in a way that’s accessible for a contemporary audience.

In this episode, we’re revisiting a conversation with Canadian writer-director Emma Seligman, about her debut feature – the darkly comic, utterly chaotic coming-of-age story, Shiva Baby.
Based on Seligman’s 2018 South By Southwest eight-minute short, Shiva Baby finds twenty-something Danielle (played by Rachel Sennott), dutifully attending a shiva for a family friend, where she spends her time lurching from one potentially catastrophic encounter to another, navigating spilled drinks, wailing babies, an embittered ex-girlfriend, and the appearance of her sugar daddy.
Speaking to VIFF’s Associate Director of Programming, Curtis Woloschuk as part of our year-round virtual Indie Spirits series, Emma gives a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the claustrophobic comedy.

In this VIFF podcast episode, we’re featuring a special talk from the 2021 Vancouver International Film Festival with Jonas Poher Rasmussen, the writer & director behind the Sundance Grand Jury Prize-winning film, Flee.
Blurring the line between documentary and narrative filmmaking styles, Flee tells the personal story of pseudonymous Amin Nawabi (a longtime friend of Rasmussen’s) and his harrowing journey as a child refugee from Afghanistan.
Using a blend of animation and archival footage as both an aesthetic choice and an ethical necessity (to hide Amin’s true identity), the film is an illuminating and heartrending true story about the importance of personal freedom in all its meanings.
Speaking to Brishkay Ahmed, writer/director of In the Rumbling Belly of Motherland, Rasmussen discusses how he employed a technique he learned when working in radio to elicit descriptive memories from Amin, his unique editing process and how Riz Ahmed came on board as a co–executive producer.

This week on the VIFF podcast, we’re featuring a conversation from our year-round virtual Creator Talk series with Dune Production Designer, Patrice Vermette
When it comes to making movies, it’s a production designer’s job to transport audiences to a different world. But in the case of Denis Villeneuve’s epic sci-fi film Dune, that also involved creating entire planets.
To pull off the godlike feat, Villeneuve teamed with frequent collaborator and fellow Canadian Patrice Vermette, a two-time Oscar-nominee who has dreamed up the sets for films such as Arrival, Sicario, and The Young Victoria.
Speaking to production designer, David Brisbin, Patrice shares his process and expertise in creating the incredibly detailed sets and immersive environments for Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures’ adaptation of Frank Herbert’s seminal bestseller, Dune.
