$POSITIONS - Brandon Daley Interview - CUFF 2025

Lucas Anders interviews writer and director Brandon Daley about his film $POSITIONS. See the International Premiere at the Calgary Underground FIlm Festival (CUFF) on Friday April 18th @ 6:45pm at the Globe Cinema. Director Brandon Daley will be in attendance for a post screening Q&A.

When Mike Alvarado's crypto investment strategy decays into a full-blown gambling addiction, he sends his life into a nightmarish anxiety-inducing downward spiral, compromising his relationships with his girlfriend, his developmentally disabled brother, and his recovering addict cousin. The feature directorial debut of writer and director Brandon Daley is a semi-autobiographical story based on his time trading stocks and crypto during the COVID-19 quarantine days. A twitchy, hyper-contemporary comedy with equal doses of laughs and panic attacks, $POSITIONS recently had its World Premiere at SXSW 2025.
