SXSW: Micaela Wittman is Perfect and Clairevoyant

Micaela Wittman joins the sibs to talk Clairevoyant, the indie film that started it all for her. Micaela breaks down Claire, a well-meaning, slightly privileged, deeply flawed woman who keeps getting taken advantage of by the corrupt spiritual world around her (neutral color palettes bring you closer to god, apparently). They get into Earl's hilariously detached off-camera energy, 12 hours of improv, and why the film earns its compassion for a character. Plus, Micaela reflects on her character in the SXSW premiering Perfect — the grounded, no-nonsense counterweight to Kai (Ashley Moore)'s beautiful chaos.
