SXSW Festival 2023 - Mother of the Dawn

Send us Fan MailWelcome to the South By Southwest (SXSW) Festival in Austin, Texas!Holy shit, this interview is a doozy. To our regular listeners, this episode is more of a #BasicBitch than an interview, and at one point the tables were turned and Erin and Ange were the ones receiving questions. Let's just say that we had a meeting of the minds with these ladies, and this is (hopefully) the beginning of a beautiful friendship.Mother of the Dawn is a short film about a female truck driver in Brazil who started having visions of extraterrestrials in the 1950s. These visions led her to start her own community/religion of followers that has over 800,000 members, yet is still relatively unheard of. We were joined by director Janell Shirtcliff and producer Daisy O'Dell, and while our conversation definitely discusses the importance of their short film and how much they cherish this community of people and their beliefs, it also ventures off into the unknown (in the best way possible). We hope that you'll enjoy listening to this conversation as much as we enjoyed having it!Follow director Janell  Shirtcliff on IG Follow producer Daisy O'Dell on IG --Thanks for listening and for your support!
