Ian and David welcome back filmmaker Emily Lape to talk about her upcoming sci-fi drama, Abiquiu, and one of the movies that inspired it, Andrew Patterson's The Vast of Night!

This episode is part movie review, and part promotion of the Abiquiu crowdfunding campaign, which is currently underway at Seed&Spark. But it's also a look at one writer/director's grind in getting a microbudget indie off the ground--from scripting and meeting with potential investors, to casting and location scouting from across the country--all while balancing a day job that has nothing to do with the industry!

If you're interested in helping Emily make Abiquiu a reality, please consider supporting her Seed&Spark campaign via the link below, and check out her debut feature, the Chicago-set Mercy’s Girl, on Amazon Prime!
