169. Ice Blue (2017) & Fire (1995) with Sandi Somers & Mike Peterson

This week, Becky and guest co-host Michael Peterson talk to filmmaker Sandi Somers about her debut feature Ice Blue and the influence on her work of Deepah Mehta’s seminal Fire from 1995.

Although Ice Blue is Sandi’s first feature, she’s no stranger to the film scene - with over 70 short films behind her and two and a half decades in the arts - her insights are invaluable. And if you’re not familiar with Deepa Mehta or the first instalment of her controversial and celebrated Elements trilogy, this is the perfect place to start.
