Nina Meredith, Kendall Goldberg, and Maria Prieto

In this Roundtable we are joined by rising directors Kendall Goldberg and Nina Meredith. Kendall’s feature directorial debut, When Jeff Tried to Save The World, won the International Film Critics’ Prize at the 2018 Heartland Film Festival and garnered much praise. Most recently, Kendall created and directed a docuseries pilot for Comedy Central. Nina’s work as a director blurs the line between narrative and documentary, with an elegance and ease that has not gone unnoticed. Her work has been recognized both internationally by the Tribeca Film Festival, Cannes Lions, and the Clios, to name a few. We dive into their journeys getting projects off the ground, the importance of talking about your rejections as much as your successes, and their mutual admiration for Judith Weston. We end the discussion with a fun round of quick fire questions, such as favorite crafty snack and weirdest location they’ve filmed in.
