On this episode of the Film Sessions Podcast, we are excited to feature Phynley Joel:

“Hello! My name is Phynley and I am a 22 year old filmmaker from Nashville, Tennessee. I love to make films with simple, hopeful stories and aim to create a set atmosphere that is warm, inclusive and collaborative! Half of my family is from New Zealand and I have a NZ dual citizenship, which is why some of my favorite projects have been done there. I also think that this greatly informs some of the lightness and simplicity that plays into a lot of my stories.

In 2021 I was lucky enough to have my film, "Muggy," screened at the Nashville Film Festival and (to my disbelief, still) it actually won the Next Generation Filmmakers award there. This year, my film, "The Trobie" which was just screened at SWIFF was also screened at NFF. The last year and a half have held some very special occurrences and kindness towards some of my favorite projects.

As of late, I graduated college in May of '22 and I have been to blessed to have gotten my start in directing a documentary piece which has taken me to Norway and Rome over the last few months - very exciting!

To be honest, I'd say that beyond film alone, I am excited to be involved, in any way, in the production of any good story that I'm passionate about being told! I'm not sure what direction that will take, but for the moment, film is the vehicle and I am so thrilled and blessed to get to do it.”

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
