This episode highlights two Slamdance Film Festival narrative films and the conversations cover everything from religion to chlamydia!

Bliss is the second film in a trilogy that follows Virgil Bliss, a fugitive that has now been on the run for twenty years, and has to deal with the sudden death of his girlfriend and the surprise arrival of her religious sister. We had a packed house with director/writer Joe Maggio, actors/co-writers Faryl Amadeus and Clint Jordan, and Executive Producer Larry Fessenden. They share the significance of the desert in Virgil's story, how they had fun with the collaborative scriptwriting process, incidental filmmaking, and how religion became a big part of the story.

The Bitcoin Car is a musical adventure that involves a young goat farmer and a cryptocurrency mine built on top of a graveyard. Director Trygve Luktvasslimo and talent Zoe Winter-Hansen join us to discuss how the film deals with serious issues in a fun way, why the film also needed to be a musical, and the hilarious explanation of why the goats were named after STDs.
