What happens when life delivers something so far beyond your control that it threatens to erase your very purpose?

On today’s episode of In Love with the Process, Mike Pecci sits down with fearless director Joe Hil to talk about his powerful new documentary Match in a Haystack.

The film follows Ukraine’s most determined female dance troupe as they fight to create their first show since the Russian invasion in 2022. Instead of focusing on destruction, Joe captures the resilience and beauty of art created in the middle of war, a perspective that flips the war documentary on its head.

Joe also shares his own journey, starting out at Vice News, witnessing the company’s rise and collapse, and what it felt like to realize how disposable you are inside a massive media machine. From working the system to finishing a film against all odds, Joe’s story is one of grit, determination, and creative fearlessness.

This episode is raw, inspiring, and packed with contagious energy. If you care about art, filmmaking, or what it means to push through the impossible, this is one you cannot miss.
