In this episode, I talk with American filmmaker and visual artist Elisabeth Subrin about the making of her first feature film A Woman/A Part. We cover a lot of important and inspiring topics: how Elisabeth convinced Scott McCauley, her producer, to get on board, the cold pitch she gave Maggie Siff to offer her the lead role while they were still looking for financing, the reality of selling and distributing a feminist film and the many lessons she’s taking with her for her next film. Elisabeth determination to make her film was so infectious I personally got inspired to reach out to an actress I had in mind for my feature film and convinced her to play in the short film we’re now shooting as proof of concept. If it were not for Elisabeth’s story, I believe I would have waited until I had “more” and missed a big opportunity out of fear of being rejected for not having enough. I hope this episode will leave you as empowered and inspired as I was, enjoy:
