Guests include First Look Film Festival programmers David Schwartz & Aliza Ma. The festival, which introduces films that are harder to classify and offer new and unique perspectives, will take place at the Museum of the Moving Image over a 2-weekend period from January 9th through the 18th. Tickets and more details are available on the MoMI website.

My ongoing series of conversations from the set of The Missing Girl, filmmaker Alex Calvo’s dark comedy, continues with the actress Alexia Rasmussen (The Comedy). Past segments from this series have included guests Robert Longstreet and Thomas Jay Ryan. The film has been picture locked and is currently in the festival submission process. A premiere will be announced soon.

Last up, Israeli-born/Germany-based filmmaker Yael Reuveny discussing her new documentary Farewell Herr Schwarz. The film opens in NYC on January 9th and is being distributed by Kino Lorber.
