When an opportunity was created for me to interview these fine folks, I had to jump on it and add it into the Diversity in Film series. The movie itself speaks on the topic of diversity and the three film makers give a lot of insight on what it was like as female and minority film makers in the late 80's when this movie was being made. Rosalind was even nice enough to take a moment and discuss her role in the new Mulan live action film that we will hopefully get to see soon.
