In this first episode of our new season, we meet Shelli Taylor, who became the CEO of Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas just weeks after the pandemic temporarily closed all their locations. Cameron Bailey, Artistic Director and Co-Head of the Toronto International Film Festival, talks about diversity in Hollywood, and how the past year is shifting the films and filmmakers we celebrate. Then we meet Vicky Ding, who runs a film sales company in Beijing, where theatres are booming as China takes the lead as the biggest box office in the world.
