Slamdance 2025 - BANR and Project Dad

Send us Fan MailWe're at Slamdance 2025 celebrating two films that center around family issues.BANR is a narrative feature about a couple who has been together for forty years struggling with how to cope with the onset of Alzheimer's as the disease takes its toll. We were joined by director Erica Xia-Hou (夏侯云姗), who explains why she wrote the film during the pandemic as her grandmother was struggling with Alzheimer's, how a last minute dog adoption turned into a star of the film, and the everlasting power of love. Project Dad is a documentary short shot by a feminist daughter trying to connect with her pickup artist dad who helps men succeed at dating on Tinder. Director/subject Camilla jämting joins us to share how she was able to separate being a director and being a daughter, why her cameraman had to stop filming during a certain intense scene, and being ok with relationships that are complicated.Follow director Erica Xia-Hou (夏侯云姗) on IGFollow director Camilla Jämting on IGSupport the showThanks for listening and for your support!
