We are live, on-location at the TCL Chinese Theatre for AFI FEST 2023 (https://fest.afi.com) as the official podcast partner. These shorter, special episodes are with selected filmmakers.
In this episode we interview Conner De Mita (Director/Co-Writer) & Ari Jacobson (Co-Writer) for their film “WAKE”. The film is a bit surreal and a bit of horror. Conner wrote the first draft in the middle of the night and finished at 6am. They talk about how they work as co-writers. They do a lot of writing physically together in the same room. Conner cast his brother in the lead role and they had to communicate very personal feelings to the page and through film.
