Welcome to the Underground Cinema Podcast, where we shine a light on the incredible filmmakers and storytellers behind this year’s Underground Cinema Film Awards.

Joining us today is Luke Corcoran, the creative force behind Matriarch, to talk about his inspiration for the film, his approach to its complex female characters, and his journey as a writer and director. We’re also delighted to welcome Joan Fleetwood, who delivers a commanding performance as the Matriarch and has been nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the 16th Underground Cinema Film Awards.
