Our first guest conversation is here ! This is part one. Be sure to listen to part two, exclusively here.

This week, we’re talking with Malkah Manouel about launching Lunette Films after her time at MUBI, building a home for bold independent cinema, what theatrical can still do for films, and what it means to create something outside the usual systems without pretending those systems don’t exist.

It’s a conversation about film, taste, risk, audience-building, and the space between “waiting to be chosen” and deciding to build the thing yourself.

This is exactly the kinda conversation indie forever was made for: honest, practical, a little existential, and rooted in what it actually takes to keep making and moving work in the world.

Thanks for listening <3 Indie forever, in good company.
