This week Alysha L. Ellis is LIVE from the Cleveland International Film Fest featuring film directors, producers, writers and more.
Check out this sit down with the creative minds before two films Luz Orlando Brennan, Director of "The Star I Lost" and Fernanda Faya, Director of "Neirud" as we discuss the importance of family legacy, storytelling, inspiration, and passion. In this episode, we also share personal experiences about working with others, the power truth, and all things film.
"The Star I lost" Norma (legendary Argentinian actress Mirta Busnelli) would never be accused of being a great mother, frequently choosing her stage career over anything else. But now that her grown daughter is about to fly the coop, maybe it’s not too late for Norma to balance art with family.
" Neirud"Spurred by her aunt’s death, documentarian Fernanda Faya uncovers the truth behind her aunt Neirud’s career as a mid-century circus performer and woman wrestler (known under the vile moniker “the Gorilla Woman”), Brazil’s secret feminist history, and why Faya’s family kept it under wraps for so long.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
