Behind The Lens | Sarah Friedland on Familiar Touch, Coming Of Age, Dementia,

This week we sit down with writer and director Sarah Friedland, whose debut feature Familiar Touch premieres to critical acclaim. We dive into Sarah's intimate approach to storytelling, her exploration of dementia and memory through a deeply human lens, and the writing process behind one of the year's most quietly devastating films. She opens up about navigating the healthcare system as dramatic subject matter, the fine line between coming-of-age and coming-to-terms, and what it truly means to honour real human experience on screen.
