Episode #85 Christine Luby & Maya Newell

This is a different episode format than regular listeners will be used to. Here I’ll be chatting with two filmmakers in seperate interviews that were originally recorded for my radio spot on the Community Radio Network. The first interview is with Christine Looby to discuss her new Young Adult coming-of-age adventure film, The Curious Case of Dolphin Bay. An accomplished Assistant Director with 15 years of experience in film and television, Christine graduated to Directing in 2020 with her debut feature This Little Love of Mine - the first Australian feature to commence production during the global COVID-19 Pandemic. The second interview is with filmmaker Maya Newell who shares some great stories about the making of her brilliant new documentary The Dreamlife of Georgie Stone. Spanning nineteen years, The Dreamlife of Georgie Stone tells the story of Georgie, an Australian transgender teen as she helps change laws, affirms her gender, finds her voice and emerges into adulthood.
