Welcome to Flashback Friday! We're bringing back a documentary that we covered this past January at Sundance 2024, and is in theaters now!
Seeking Mavis Beacon is a documentary that follows the investigation into what happened to one of the most influential Black women in technology who has been missing from the public eye since 1995. Director/investigator Jazmin Jones and associate producer/investigator Olivia McKayla Ross sit down with us to share how they met, how they learned to lean into the discomfort of the process, and servile fembots and marginalized bodies in the tech industry.

We’re back with a Basic Bitch and we have a lot to catch up on! From the Olympics (and a certain pole vaulting video that we may or may not be watching regularly), to Outside Lands (Grace Jones AND Chappell Roan?!?) and the Democratic National Convention (“…from the windoooows to the Walzzzz…”), these bitches needed to float on the river just to recover from all the excitement. And we cap it off with a special announcement for friend of the show Anica Wu of Bonjerk who makes the best jerky we’ve ever had. If you’re living in the SF/Bay Area, click here to find out where it’s being sold at a location near you!

We're talking about one of our favorite movies of the year with director/writer Sean Wang and actor Joan Chen! DÌDI (弟弟) follows a 13-year-old Taiwanese American boy during the last month of summer before high school begins, as he learns to skate, flirt, and love his mom. We get behind the scenes details of the first (and most intense) scene with Joan and lead actor Izaac Wang, learn why playing this role was both cathartic and redemptive for Joan, and how Sean believes the best part of filmmaking makes him a better person. Then we cap it off by celebrating both the diversity of Fremont, California (where the film is set), and the magic (and longevity) of Golfland.

This is one of our favorite movies of the year, and the interview was equally as satisfying! We sat down with director Greg Kwedar, and actors Clarence "Divine Eye" Maclin and Sean San Jose to discuss their beautiful film, Sing Sing. The film is based on the real life RTA (Rehabilitation Through the Arts) program at Sing Sing Maximum Security Prison, centered around a group of inmates involved in the theater program. They share how they created a special brotherhood behind the camera, why comedy was an important aspect to the story, their emotional in person screening at Sing Sing, and Divine Eye's surprising dream role for the future.

One of our all time favorite guests has returned, and he never disappoints! Take a listen to hear why a happy hour with Daveed Diggs is good for the soul. We dive into fatherhood, Comic Con, the new Clipping album (and behind the scenes stories from their European tour), the importance of local politics (and why he's backing Michael Tubbs for Lieutenant Governor), and doing his part to make Oakland and the Bay Area a hub for filmmaking (through Make It Bay and screenwriter salons).
You can watch Daveed on Snowpiercer Season 4, airing Sundays on AMC!

Owl is a film that debuted at CAAMFest this year about a woman who returns home to Oakland to care for her ailing father, and her problems quickly become much bigger than she ever expected. Director/writer/co-producer Julian Pham and co-producer/lead talent/musician Marica Petrey join us to share how the idea for this film stemmed from a picture Julian took of Marica, their pride in highlighting Oakland and finding beauty in the grittiness of the city, the reason behind their eclectic choices in music styles, and some great advice for budding filmmakers.

We're excited to share our first official coverage of the Tribeca Festival! (virtually through Zoom, but it still counts!)
We kick things off with the documentary New Wave, which follows director Elizabeth Ai on a mission to share the untold story of rebellious punks in the '80s Vietnamese new wave community, but in the process, ends up facing her own haunting past. Director Elizabeth Ai and producer Rachel Sine reflect on how the film took a turn on an unexpected emotional roller coaster, the importance of archival footage (and their creative way of collecting it), the importance of discussing mental health in the AAPI community, and getting Simu Liu on board as Executive Producer.
Next, we discuss the short film A Family Guide to Hunting, about a daughter who takes her uptight Korean-American parents and All-American boyfriend on a bonding hunting trip, where things turn from bad to grisly. Director/writer/producer Zao Wang and producers Joyce Liu-Countryman and Louise Barretto join us to share the behind the scenes logistical complications (ie: snow in LA?!?), why Margaret Cho was the only person who could play the role of the mother, and the special brand of love that is unique to immigrant families.

We are beyond excited that this documentary is out in theaters, because it is an event that we all should have grown up hearing about! COPA 71 shares the erased history of the 1971 Women's World Cup (more than 20 years prior to the first FIFA sponsored Women's World Cup), which was held in Mexico City and attended by more than 100,000 fans.
Director Rachel Ramsay joins us via zoom to explain her shock in finding out about this massive event that has been purposefully wiped from history, the extensive search for archival footage that continued until two weeks before they finished the movie, the emotional impact of the story, and getting major players like Alex Morgan, Brandi Chastain, and Venus and Serena Williams on board.

We were joined by director Agniia Galdanova and producer Igor Myakotin to discuss how they met Gena, how they kept their crew safe while filming her in public, and the complications that were added while filming during the start of the war in Ukraine.

Thelma is the action/comedy film we've all been waiting for, and this interview was just as fun as watching the movie! Thelma is a 93 year-old grandmother who gets duped by a phone scammer and sets out on a quest through the streets of LA to reclaim what was taken from her.
Director Josh Margolin and the film's star, June Squibb, join us to explain how Josh's 103 year-old grandmother was the inspiration for the film, and that June was always his first choice for the lead. Then June shares her favorite stunts to perform, and the story behind her new nickname "stops-on-a-dime Squibb". We cap it off with some touching behind the scenes stories of their time working with Richard Roundtree.

Welcome to Flashback Friday! We're bringing back two great films that we covered at SXSW, because you will be able to see them on the big screen (and we highly recommend that you do) during the Frameline Film Festival in San Francisco (from June 19th -June 29th)!
A House Is Not A Disco captures a year in the life of the world's most iconic homo-normative community: Fire Island Pines. Director Brian J. Smith and producer Jeremy Truong share the difficulty of staying focused while you're being offered margaritas during filming, how climate change became an important part of the story, and the concept behind "food for bottoms".
I Don't Understand You is a narrative film that follows an American couple on the verge of adopting a baby as they find themselves stranded in rural Italy without transportation or language skills. And of course, chaos ensues. This interview is with producers Jessamine Burgum and Kara Durrett from Pinky Promise Films. We get into starting a production company during the heart of the pandemic, their decision making process for new films, how being a young company is an advantage in an ever changing industry, and what a difference it makes to work with really cool people.

We're continuing our celebration of Pride Month by discussing the Frameline Film Festival (the world's oldest and largest LGBTQIA film festival, running June 19th-June 29th) with Executive Director, Allegra Madsen!
Allegra is a badass bitch who has been able to marry her love of community building with her love of films as Frameline's newly coined Executive Director. She shares how she ended up in San Francisco, her (sometimes embarrassing) favorite movies growing up, how she was able to create a space for communities that are continually displaced in SF's Bayview district, and why film is a great gateway to other art forms. We then discuss our collective excitement over this year's festival lineup, including an epic (and free!) Juneteenth block party in the Castro District to kickoff the whole event. We'll see you there!

Welcome to Flashback Fridays! We're bringing back two films that you can see on the big screen at this year's Frameline Film Festival in San Francisco (running June 19-29)! We truly loved both of these documentaries that will introduce you to two amazing women that should already be household names.
The World According to Allee Willis shares the story of one of the most successful singer/songwriter/artists of our time, Allee Willis, from her strict upbringing to her creative successes (despite struggling to fit in with sexual and gender norms), and eventually, her path to love. We are joined by director Alexis Spraic, producer Nicholas Coles, and EP/participant Prudence Fenton, who share the finding of hidden gems in Allee's archival footage, if there is potential for this to become a series (yes, please!), and how they are continuing Allee's legacy through the Willis Wonderland Foundation.
Any Other Way: The Jackie Shane Story, follows the life of one of music's first Black trans performers, and how she made it to the edge of stardom before disappearing. Directors Michael Mabbott and Lucah Rosenberg-Lee describe how they thankfully were able to find Jackie before her sudden death, the importance of the timing of the film's release, and telling the story of a trans woman's life that was filled with joy.

We're celebrating CAAMFest (Center for Asian American Media) 2024 with two films about young women athletes!
Home Court is a documentary that follows Ashley Chea, a basketball prodigy and first generation Cambodian-American, as she navigates recruitment, injury, and generational trauma. We are joined by director Erica Tanamachi and producer Jenn Lee Smith who share their excitement in telling a story about Asian American sport leagues, showing a positive relationship between a player and her coach, prioritizing people on and off camera, and working with two Bitch Talk favorites, Lisa Ling and Ruby Ibarra.
The documentary Ashima follows a year in the life of 13 year-old Ashima Shiraishi, one of the world's youngest elite rock climbers, as she travels with her father/coach from New York to South Africa in the hopes of becoming the youngest climber to conquer a V14 boulder (in the climbing world, this is an elite ranked climb). Director Kenji Tsukamoto and producer Minji Chang share their decade long journey into getting this film made, Kenji's intimate filmmaking experience that involved living with the family, and Ashima's reaction to watching the film ten years later.
