I don't say this lightly: you've never seen a film like PROJECT DAD. It's a Slamdance original from an artist that is making waves throughout Europe and now looking forward to a North American run: Camilla Jämting.

What a film. What a story. PROJECT DAD is a film you have to see to believe, and keep up with Camilla so you can see it just as soon as it screening near you.

In this episode, Camilla and I talk about:

  • the courage and bravery to create PROJECT DAD;
  • what should people expect to see when they watch PROJECT DAD;
  • the little moments in the film that touch upon gender stereotypes and social commentary;
  • does she see it as a Swedish film?;
  • does she identify herself as a feminist and how does it influence her filmmaking?
  • why Slamdance?;
  • when people can watch the film -- who knows, maybe partner with Tinder!;
  • what's next for her? PROJECT DAD might be turned into a reality TV series!
