Echo Chamber - 315 - Part Three (Final Heat)
It's the last installment of this week's @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ podcast, and we're getting physical!!!
In 'Part THREE', thanks to Vision Films we have a sports drama, that's all about friendship, relationships, addiction and love. THEN, we conversate with two of the stars, who also were behind directing, writing and producing the feature. Their story goes back over a decade though, as it was sport that brought them together. And since that friendship has helped create an environment which has enabled them to evolve into rising film stars and the support system to create their own vision! We go into this and a LOT more, so chalk up and get ready for another immersive confab!!! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/g7KcAASclJs
'Final Heat' is the feature directorial debut from Jeremy Gimenez, which he also wrote. The married owners of a struggling functional fitness gym, Cam (Brad Benedict) & Laney (Molly Cerne) have the perfect plan to raise money: they’ll bring in the best athletes to compete in "The Games" to win the huge cash prize. They record everything documentary-style as the athletes confess their secrets. As the team trains, egos clash, tempers flare, and a figure (Jeremy Gimenez) from the past threatens to destroy the team, the gym, and their lives.

Echo Chamber - 315 - Part Two (Silence of the Prey)
In 'Part Two' @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ takes a look at a harrowing social issue, through the guise of horror / drama!!!
The great folks at The Horror Collective passed on this new indie feature framed around the perils of immigration. We then sit down with the young woman whose family history was the impetuous to step behind the camera and imbue her DMA into the film! There were so many technical issues with this, BUT, Karyna was a legend and powered through, and I think we ended up with a really insightful 90 minutes which you're going to love!!! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/1ZVuv3zarhM
'Silence of the Prey' is directed by Michael Vaynberg & Karyna Kudzina (her feature directorial debut), which Karyna co-wrote with Saro Varjabedian. In a desperate bid to secure a future for her child (Isabella Bezell), an undocumented immigrant mother (Karyna Kudzina) takes a caretaker job. Unbeknownst to her, the elderly man (Chris LaPanta) conceals a horrifying truth.

'Da Joint' (Instrumental) by EPMD - 2020
Echo Chamber - 313 - Part Two (Stephen)
We've got a riveting 'Part TWO' edition of @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ for you this week!!!
Thanks to the great folks at Modern Films, we were able to check out this new and strikingly unorthodox documentary. THEN, sit down with the visual arts phenom, making her first forays into feature length filmmaking with the project! We talk about the challenges, how different formats offer new insights into storytelling, why now was the time, and this was the tale to tell. We got into a LOT, in only sixty minutes, so you don't want to miss this one!!! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/s__CTIKhqZ4
'Stephen' is the feature directorial debut from Melanie Manchot, which she co-wrote with Leigh Campbell. A hybrid narrative fiction/documentary, STEPHEN is shaped by the raw and moving energy of one young man's quest to transform his early life of violence and addiction and of his desire to both act and live differently. The film is centred around Stephen Giddings (Ste @stegiddings), who, growing up on the Quarry Green Estate in Kirkby, Liverpool, was confronted with addiction from an early age - both in the lives of those around him, and eventually in his own. At just 26 years old he was giving up on life. What follows is an intimate journey as Stephen auditions for and takes on a role in a movie, questioning whether he can fulfil his ambitions and realise one of his big dreams: to become an actor. Combining original archive material, interviews and narrative drama, STEPHEN brings together a unique cast of British actors alongside a support cast of participants in active addiction recovery.
Today we have:

Echo Chamber - 312 - Part Two
It's 'Part TWO' of this week's @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ podcast, people!!!
Now, the question is, what do you get when you take a renowned director, and an extreme athlete? Well, thanks to Gary Springer we were able to find out this episode! We talk about the new documentary that looks at two crazy Egyptian extreme athletes who attempted the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge. THEN, one of those athletes, and the films director stop by to get into how this whole thing came together. From the competition side of things, how and why, then how this became a film, and all the complexities to bring it to life on the big screen. It's just a shame we didn't have another hour, cause there was so much to absorb. Hope you enjoy it, and it gets you to go watch the film!!! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/J7wiQiOOH18
'Beyond the Raging Sea' is directed by Marco Orsini, who co-wrote with Frederick L. Greene. The gripping adventure of two Egyptian athletes (Omar Nour & Omar Samra) who embark on the world’s toughest row, a 3000 nautical mile open water race across the Atlantic, in a 7-meter rowboat, dedicated to the displaced people crossing dangerous seas…they didn’t make it!

It's time to end @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ episode '311' with some real talk!!!
We're coming with a sequel today, reminiscent of those slice-of-life movies, family, relationships, love, introspection, evolution, it's all laid bare! If you haven't seen the first flick, you'll still be able to enjoy and follow. THEN, the co-writer and co-star comes through to conversate about all things creative. We go into his growth as an actor, how he handles the different hats he's worn, working with his kid, and so much more. A great listen to take you into the weekend, watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/9bLZUCeSmBc
'Queen of Knives' is directed by Jon Delgado, and written by Lindsay Joy & Gene Pope. A modern eccentric family (Gene Pope, Mel Harris, Roxi Pope, Emily Bennett) is scattered to the winds in Brooklyn, NY. Relationships (Alexandra Renzo, Carmen LoBue , Tara Westwood) keep shifting. Generations keep trying to adapt to a new world. There’s a fateful dinner. With much drama and comedy, the question becomes: Who are the adults here?

We have an incredible new hybrid documentary, thanks to Door Number 3 Productions, National Film Board of Canada, Clique Pictures & AR:PR that explores the fascinating life of a Cree elder! THEN, although she was out at the CPH:DOX Copenhagen International Documentary Film Festival for the 'World Premiere' and other screenings of the Doc, the visionary behind this piece of work was kind enough to spare some time to talk on such topics as cultural repression, Indigenous lore, labelling, and the way we learn!!! This REALLY is one not to miss, I hope you enjoy it, as much as I did!!! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/wvqVYfbgFy8
'Wilfred Buck' is written & directed by Lisa Jackson. Inspired by the book 'I Have Lived Four Lives'. An elder member (Wilfred Buck) of the indigenous Cree people of Canada is our spiritual guide in a film that, like its charismatic protagonist, moves between past and present, and between Earth and the stars, to overcome the ghosts of colonisation.

Time for another 'Special Edition' @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ to kick off the week!!!
As we have a new indie psychological thriller from Wolverine Films & Vision Films dropping on 19th March we decided to give it a look! THEN, speak with the writer / director about what went into making his feature! Covering a range of topics like production, utilising experience, relationship building, AI, and much more! Definitely enlightening for those stepping into the field, and just navigating life in general!!! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/4GyEh2XtGJE
'The Manifestation' is written & directed by Geert Heetebrij, in his feature directorial debut. An unsuccessful day trader (Jack Kesy) is desperate when he loses his family’s savings. Drawing from the teachings of a self-help guru (Usman Ally), he finds that he can manifest his inner voice in the form of a younger version of his wife (Inbar Lavi Bar Shira). With her help, he turns his luck around and is able to build a fortune, but soon discovers that she may have a much darker agenda and will take everything from him, even his life.

Echo Chamber - 306 - Part Two (The Ballad of Davy Crockett)
'Part TWO' of this week's @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ like with so many, is thanks to the GREAT AJ Feuerman!!!
We step into the wild frontier of the 1800's, for a new indie that highlights an iconic US figure, and marks the anniversary of the siege of the Alamo! THEN we are joined by an actor who's been forging his own path over a wild frontier. For 20+ years he's been a presence on the small and big screen, so it was a pleasure to get into his process, motivations, and aspirations. We talk about some hobbies, and things he wouldn't do again. It was a fantastic 60 minutes and I hope you enjoy!!! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/7RPgMQmEYKY
'The Ballad of Davy Crockett' is written & directed by Derek Estlin Purvis. Set in 1815, the film tells the story of an American Legend (William Moseley), whose wife (Valerie Jane Parker) has fallen deathly ill, leaving his young children (Wyatt Parker, Nico Tirozzi) to survive on their own. Davy must set out on a perilous journey fighting off danger and enemies (Colm Meaney) across the wild frontier.

'The Trust Fall: Julian Assange' is written & directed by Kym Staton. Despite being detained, silenced, and hidden from public view in maximum security Belmarsh Prison, multi-award-winning Australian journalist and publisher Julian Assange has become one of the loudest voices for free speech of our times. The disclosures of WikiLeaks from 2010 ignited a firestorm of controversy and a relentless ongoing pursuit by the most powerful state on the planet.

Echo Chamber - 301 - Part Two
I hope you are ready for 'Part TWO' of this week's @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ cause we didn't hold back!!!
Last week you got three great conversations, now that's not happening, HOWEVER, you do get to hear from a bright new voice in the music documentary game, who has dropped pure gold on us with his feature length debut! We look at the film, THEN get to hear about the whole process of telling an untold, little known (in the UK) story! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/a8uCQx-Zmks
'Getting it Back: The Story of Cymande' is the feature directorial debut from Tim MacKenzie-Smith, which he also wrote. The story of British band Cymande. Celebrated in the US, but facing indifference in the UK, they sadly disbanded too soon but their influence was significant, prompting their return some 40 years later
In 'Part Four' we have:

Echo Chamber - 297: Part Two
I hope you're ready for 'Part TWO' of this week's @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ cause it's rammed to the rafters!!!
If you were going to the cinema in London in the late 70's onwards, then you may have passed through the hallowed doors of the Scala Cinema. However, don't worry if you didn't, cause there's a new documentary, that exudes the very essence of place and its era! THEN, we have the pleasure of speaking with the programmer for the cinema, and a repeat imbiber, who together brought the film to life! We go on a journey, exploring those heady days, as well as what it was like to breathe life into such a personal story, not just for them, but for a generation!!! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/IabLaI6KYHs
In 'Part Two' we have:
SCALA!!! Or, the incredibly strange rise and fall of the world’s wildest cinema and how it influenced a mixed-up generation of weirdos and misfits

We start with the January Daily Dippers, and then get into the different characters who take the trip to swim in Gaddings Dam reservoir. THEN, we have an extremely honest conversation with director Ben Davis. Who, may talk about his filmmaking craft as if he's a novice (paying credit to all his team), what he's been able to achieve, really enabled this story to sing!!!
