On this episode of the Film Sessions Podcast, we are excited to feature Matthew Keisoglu:
“I’m an award-winning Armenian-Australian screenwriter and director.
Currently studying for a Master of Arts, after having completed a Bachelor’s and Honours in Film, I’m focused on making surreal, tragic, and disturbing horror films that blend aesthetic styles and genres with sociocultural concepts linked to my Armenian background.
I like to examine and discuss ingrained sociocultural fears, anxieties, and stressors, imagined through the lens of horror cinema and horror monsters. I think that horror cinema is a tool to express and reflect our own real-world traumas, so that’s why I make the films I make. ”
This episode was hosted by Moises Rijo, a Podcast Host at the Student World Impact Film Festival, and produced by Mark Leschinsky, the Festival Director of the Student World Impact Film Festival.
