Nick Naveda's debut feature film Say You Will was a favorite of mine from the 2017 Seattle International Film Festival. As a matter of fact, I liked it so much I took advantage of an opportunity to sit down with him and two of the producers to discuss the film and then this year asked him to be on my podcast to discuss the new film Words on Bathroom Walls which he wrote the screenplay for.  The New Directions In Film podcast series features interviews with directors about their latest projects and also about how both the pandemic and the recent protests have changed what it means to make movies.
