Cannes World Premiere: Reuben Hamlyn on His New Film "Sunday's Children"

from She's All Over the Place · host Katie Elizabeth Chonacas

Today on She's All Over the Place , we are bringing you a massive indie film exclusive on the exact day of its Cannes Film Festival World Premiere! We sit down with Emmy and BIFA-nominated writer, director, and editor Reuben Hamlyn to discuss his highly anticipated new film, "Sunday's Children ".   The project introduces us to a dark, formally playful love story. We follow Dennis (an entitled optimist desperate to become a father) who spends a weekend falling for Kasia (a worn-down realist who firmly believes God warned her never to have children).   Reuben takes us behind the scenes of his artistic vision, breaking down: The Power of Solipsism: How our deep desires can blind us to the ultimate autonomy and agency of those around us. Empathy for Flawed Characters: Unpacking the creative resistance to representing "bad" characters, and why exploring their psychology is vital to avoiding dehumanization. The Road to Cannes 2026: What it takes to move from a critically acclaimed, award-winning feature debut like Another Body to a prestigious La Cinef selection at the Cannes Film Festival . This episode is an absolute must-listen for indie filmmakers, cinephiles following the Cannes lineup, and anyone fascinated by complex psychological storytelling.   Links & Resources: Check out the official trailer for the film: Sunday's Children Trailer on Cannes Festival Media Keep up with the festival line-up and screenings: Festival de Cannes Official Site Follow the host and show updates: https://www.chonacas.com/links/ Subscribe and Review: If you loved this deep dive, rate She's All Over the Place on Apple Podcasts and Spotify!
