Join us as we talk to Sophie Koivisto, a diabetic woman working in film as a camera op and cinematographer. We discuss the challenges of being a woman in film, being sick, and what it’s like to create your own opportunities. We also talk about narrative vs documentary.
(NOTE: I didn’t realize my headphones were a little bit broken until after we’d recorded the episode, so I apologize for a few glitches here and there that cut out a couple words.)
