SXSW 2021 - United States vs. Reality Winner w/director Sonia Kennebeck

Send us Fan MailDoes anyone out there remember the name Reality Winner? We had a fuzzy recollection of this 24-hour news cycle name that we heard early in 45's presidency but had forgotten because of the 24-hour news cycle we all lived through the past four years. Director Sonia Kennebeck has done a deep dive into this story following Reality as well as her families struggle with a government who punishes its citizens for whistleblowing even if it's in the countries best interest.  Take a listen to our conversation with Sonia as we talk about the United States vs. Reality Winner, Edward Snowden, the strange goings on while filming in Russia, and how dangerous it is working on these types of documentary stories.  Follow Sonia Kennebeck on Twitter, IG, and Codebreaker Films--Be well, stay safe, Black Lives Matter, AAPI Lives Matter, and thank you for wearing a mask. --Buy us a cup of coffee!Subscribe to our channel on YouTube for behind the scenes footage!Rate and review us wherever you listen to podcasts!Visit our website! www.bitchtalkpodcast.comFollow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.Listen every other Thursday 9:30 - 10 am on BFF.FMPOWERED BY GO-TO Productions Support the showThanks for listening and for your support!
