Washing up with Isabel Daly

Despite very little experience in feature filmmaking, director Isabel Daly teamed up with writer Issy Brett and actor/writer/producer, Carys Glynne, to make Washed Up, their debut feature film on a shoestring budget. The delightful story of a Cornish artist who accidentally falls in love with a selkie premieres at this year’s BFI Flare, the British Film Institute’s annual LGBTQIA+ film festival. Jen caught up with Isabel to talk about filmmaking, queer representation in film, Airbnb culture, and the joy of a 90-minute movie. Washed Up screens at BFI Flare on March 25 and 28 and tickets are available now. Want to support us and enjoy additional content? Of course you do. And you can: patreon.com/standardissue.
