ep360: The Ones You Didn't Burn (2022) - special guests Elise Finnerty & Estelle Girard Parks

Our in-depth Chattanooga Film Festival coverage continues as Nathan is joined by Elise Finnerty (writer/director/actress) and Estelle Girard Parks (producer/actress) to discuss their film THE ONES YOU DIDN'T BURN.  This film follows two siblings trying to find themselves while coping with the loss of their father - a process that is both aided and hindered by the managers of the family farm that have a...complicated...relationship with the land and the family.  This was another favorite of the fest for Nathan, as it dealt with systemic oppression, generational trauma, and the process of self-discovery amidst the loss of a loved one - and it's no surprise that THE ONES YOU DIDN'T BURN won the Chattanooga Film Festival award for Best Feature By A First-Time Director!!  So grab your tarot deck, find your missing piece, and join us at the beach as we dive deep into the analysis of THE ONES YOU DIDN'T BURN with Elise and Estelle!!
