On this episode, I spoke to the writer and director of Passages, IRA SACHS.
Passages, one of my favorite films of 2023, stars Franz Rogowski, Ben Whishaw and Adèle Exarchopoulos
It’s a movie that I’m relishing as an adult, and yearned for as a kid. I can imagine some queer teenager telling their mom they were seeing the latest latest summer blockbuster, only to actually be sneaking into this hyper-fluid world. At least… that’s what I would have done.
I got to talk to Sachs about that exact feeling while watching Passages, an honor and privilege I won’t soon forget.
Other films from Sachs include Frankie, Little Men (Grand Prix, 2016 Deauville American Film Festival), Love is Strange, Keep the Lights On (Teddy Award, 2012 Berlinale), Forty Shades of Blue (Dramatic Grand Jury Prize, 2005 Sundance) and his first feature, The Delta.
