In this episode we sit down with Gianluca Vallero - a filmmaker with 30+ years of experience creating independent film in Berlin. And we ask the question - was it better before? We don't think so - but Gianluca makes a compelling and nostalgic argument for the wonder of cinema theaters and the patience needed to shoot a film without compromising.

Gianluca's new movie is called "The Woddafucka Thing" and has it's premiere now.

We also touch on topics such as the importance of having a compelling story and a strong script, the value of long-term projects and the perseverance required to see them through, and the benefits and drawbacks of digital technology in filmmaking. We delve into the debate around the role of theaters versus digital platforms in releasing films, emphasizing the personal connection and emotional impact of watching a film in a theater.
