The documentary Family: A Love Story took home a Grand Jury Prize at Film Invasion Los Angeles in 2018.  It is without a doubt one of the most wonderfully documentaries you could have caught on the festival circuit, and now it is available online at IndieBoom.

When you hear this interview with director Sarah Prikryl you get to find out that the process which brought this documentary to screen is as heartwarming as the documentary itself.  And Sarah’s path from actor to photographer to director has set her up perfectly to be one of the most talented filmmakers to come through the doors of Film Invasion Los Angeles.

But BEFORE you listen to the interview, you should watch this terrific short documenter.  For now you have to settle for the link above to the main IndieBoom page, but if I get an update link I’ll make sure it takes you directly to the film.

At Film Invasion Los Angeles in June, 2018, Heather Hillstrom’s short film The King In The Ring took home a Grand Jury Prize.

This is one of those films that people will never forget.  I’m certain that in five or ten years, I can refer to this film and anyone who saw it will know what I am talking about.  It is that good and that memorable.

Heather sat for a great Q&A at the festival, so I was excited to have her come do a podcast and give us the full story.  She doesn’t disappoint.  In this interview you get to hear exactly what path she took to become the filmmaker she is today.

And look at her with the huge H on her shirt in front of my Ikea cabinets.  Could she look any cooler?  Nope.  She could not.

But BEFORE you listen to the interview, you should watch this terrific short film.  That way you’ll recreate the festival experience where you see the film and then hear from the filmmaker afterward.
