Episode 310: In The Seats With...Mark Pellington and 'The Severing' at Slamdance 2022

It's important to be open to new ideas...On this episode we are diving back into the wiles that is this year's edition of the Slamdance Film Festival and taking a look at 'The Severing' from writer/director Mark Pellington.To put it simply; 'The Severing' is a dance film that is a personal and cathartic expression of loss and grieving set to dance from choreographer Nina McNeely.It won't be for everyone this is for sure, but it is a fascination pieces of art that has been thrust on to the screen and we had the distinct pleasure to sit down with Mark and talk about his inspiration for the film, why an established Hollywood vet like himself is at Slamdance and the importance of making pieces like this one....quite simply because you can.
