  • An Interview With Charis Agbonlahor & Sophie Vavasseur
    Jul 6 2026

    In this episode, we sit down with actresses Charis Agbonlahor and Sophie Vavasseur to discuss their new film Night Driver

    Set against the backdrop of late-night Dublin, Night Driver follows Ngozi, a first-generation African immigrant and single mother struggling to survive while driving a taxi through a city marked by inequality, violence and isolation. When a chance encounter leaves her with a secret that could change everything, desperation drives her to make an impossible decision—one that forces two very different women to confront their own truths.

    Charis and Sophie talk about bringing these characters to life, the emotional challenges of the roles, the film's exploration of poverty, motherhood, privilege and morality.

  • Irish Baba - An Interview With The Cast & Crew Behind The Film
    Jun 5 2026

    In this episode we’re joined by the creative team behind Irish Babadirector Vivek Srikumar, actor, writer and producer Sree Vallabhaneni, and cinematographer Michael Benson.

    Irish Baba is a sharp satirical comedy that follows a self-proclaimed spiritual guru living in Ireland and his accomplice Namita, as their world of belief, deception, and manipulation begins to unravel. What starts as a story rooted in charisma and faith quickly evolves into a tangled web of money, power struggles, and unexpected twists — exposing the fragile line between spirituality and exploitation.

    In this conversation, the team discusses how they balanced satire with storytelling, the inspiration behind the film’s world and characters, and the visual approach that helped bring its comedic yet unsettling tone to life.

  • Medicinal: An Interview With Peter Coonan
    Jun 5 2026

    In this episode, we sit down with Peter Coonan, who has been nominated for Best Actor at the 16th Underground Cinema Film Awards for his powerful performance in Medicinal.


    The film follows a father fighting against time and bureaucracy as he attempts to get a life-saving drug legalized — a desperate effort driven by love, urgency, and the fear of losing his son. As the system closes in around him, he and his family face the devastating possibility of becoming medical refugees, forced to seek survival beyond their own country’s borders.


    Medicinal is a gripping and human story about a parent’s determination to protect their child at any cost.
