In this episode of the Filmmaker Mixer, we sit down with director George Ellzey Jr. to discuss his poignant new drama Cottage Grove. George shares how the film navigates themes of identity, perception, and emotional vulnerability within a deceptively simple setup. We talk about his creative influences, how the film was shaped in the edit, and what it's like bringing subtle, character-driven stories to life in the indie space.
Whether you're a filmmaker, a fan of quiet tension, or just love a good conversation about storytelling craft—this one's for you.
