Filmmaker Alfie Faber explores the relationship between sound and image in film through interviews with directors, sound designers, composers and more.
Selina Miles is an Emmy-award winning doco filmmaker from Sydney who's directed bangers such as MARTHA: A PICTURE STORY, HARLEY AND KATYA, the recent POSTER BOY: BECOMING ZYZZ, and our focus of conversation today: SILENCED, which follows the international human rights lawyer Jennifer Robinson, exploring how defamation laws are weaponised around the world to silence victims of sexual violence - featuring figures such as Brittany Higgins and Amber Heard.

41 - Haydn Keenan is GOING DOWN
Haydn Keenan is a director, writer and producer in Sydney, who's been making some of Australia's most unique cult films since the early 70s.
In this interview I chat with him about his approach to financing transgressive films outside the state funding system, his 1987 fever-dream surrealist masterpiece Pandemonium, and his 1983 vibrant coming-of-age love letter to 1980s Sydney, Going Down, which is getting a cinema re-release from May 14th.
