Amid the hums and creaks of a new recording space, Colombian-Canadian filmmaker Lina Rodriguez visits to share some sounds from her new experimental essay film "Puntos de fuga," which screens at the TIFF Lightbox on October 20th. We discuss her process and motivations, and how she thinks in sound, as Lina sound designed this new film - pulling from a decade-old, growing personal sound bank which she has graciously shared to make up the ambience of this episode.

Thank you to Lina for sharing your perspective and sounds. Thank you to Lucia Fella Pellegrino for production help.
