TwoOhSix Interviews (SIFF 2016) - Sand Storm Director Elite Zexer


After winning both the World Cinema Grand Jury Prize at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival and the Best New Director award at the 2016 Seattle International Film Festival, Elite Zexer has become a force to be reckoned with in a very short time. During the festival here in Seattle, I was able to sit down with Zexer to talk about Sand Storm, her debut film, and she was more than willing to discuss all aspects of the film making process. If you are a fan of cinema or an aspiring film maker, you will definitely want to check out how she describes what it took to get this movie made.

At the conclusion of the festival, Caldera was presented with the Best Director award for this year's festival which made the timing of this interview even more special.
