In this one-on-one episode, Hilliard sat down with indie writer/director/filmmaker FIA PERERA -- we talk about her amazing journey from NY to LA as an actor and activist, to touring as a stand up comic and pivoting to a writer/director. Along the way, we go into some of the ups and downs of this tumultuous industry and lessons learned while trying to make a super dope feature film called MERMAID in this climate. Lots of game dropped, y'all!
