In today's episode, I interview Lu Lu about her film "Invocation," a story of dealing with life's changes based on her own personal experiences. The film was selected as a semifinalist for the 2024 Student Academy Awards.
Listen to hear about the inspiration for the film rooted in her own experience, the importance of the Miao people in Guizhou to the development of the story, and what I think is the most practical dinner party yet recommended on The Oscar Project.
Films mentioned in this episode include:
- “Invocation” directed by Lu Lu
- Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2 directed by Quentin Tarantino
- The Killing of the Sacred Deer directed by Yorgos Lanthimos
- Raw directed by Julia Ducournau
- Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller
