Episode 52 | Shamim Sarif - Writer/Director
•
Nicholas Penrake
Shamim Sarif is an award-winning filmmaker who started her creative career writing novels.
Whereas most filmmakers go through a rash of shorts before they can take a crack at directing a feature, Shamim was able to bypass all of that and dive straight in to her first feature in 2007.
Her fifth feature film, an indie drama called Polarized, was shot in Manitoba, Canada, and released earlier this year. It’s this film that we’ll be discussing for most of the episode. Enjoy this take.
