Om denne podcast
Join Charlene and Jackie, two NYC film crew workers with an absolute love of art house films …and an absolute lack of press passes to see those films at the major festivals where they premiere.
Each month your two hosts will venture through the wilds of NYC public transportation and psychotic post screening Q&A’s to discuss a festival film that has finally been released to the general public.
