Episode description

Daniel Kokotajlo explains how his upbringing as a Jehovah's Witness informed his debut film Apostasy. The drama stars Siobhan Finneran as a dedicated Jehovah's Witness, whose two teenage daughters begin to struggle to reconcile their beliefs with the secular world around them.

Editors Emma E Hickox and Rebecca Lloyd discuss how they first got into the cutting room and how diplomacy is a key skill when editing a film.

Jason Stalman, the lead animator on Wes Anderson's stop-motion film, Isle of Dogs, talks through the artistry and challenges behind creating Chief, Rex, Nutmeg and the other canine characters in the film. He also reveals how watching old acting performances from Bill Murray and Tilda Swinton informed the way the dogs were animated.
