Manage episode 431389506 series 3589482
On today’s show I talk with writer/director Jennifer Cooney, whose independently produced film WILD FIRE recently made its world premiere at the Red Dirt film festival, and whose next feature Woman of God is currently in development. We’ll discuss her rather poetic approach to the industry, what working with legendary actor Ed Asner taught her about making your limitations work for you, where community fits into an artists’ vision, and how clipping the mother leaf can help you get where you’re going.
