ABOUT THIS EPISODE
I don't say this lightly: you've never seen a film like PROJECT DAD. It's a Slamdance original from an artist that is making waves throughout Europe and now looking forward to a North American run: Camilla Jämting.
What a film. What a story. PROJECT DAD is a film you have to see to believe, and keep up with Camilla so you can see it just as soon as it screening near you.
In this episode, Camilla and I talk about:
- the courage and bravery to create PROJECT DAD;
- what should people expect to see when they watch PROJECT DAD;
- the little moments in the film that touch upon gender stereotypes and social commentary;
- does she see it as a Swedish film?;
- does she identify herself as a feminist and how does it influence her filmmaking?
- why Slamdance?;
- when people can watch the film -- who knows, maybe partner with Tinder!;
- what's next for her? PROJECT DAD might be turned into a reality TV series!

At the risk of sounding corny (and real in a world of AI slop podcast descriptions), let me add a fourth F: Ford. As in Tom Ford. No, not that one -- the cinematographer Tom Ford, who made my favorite film of the year absolutely shine through his work years ago.
