    The Carnage Report Bonus Episode: Chattanooga Film Fest interviews

On this bonus episode of the Carnage Report, with Chattanooga Film Fest taking place in-person June 18-21 and online June 19-27, we’ve pushed back our next episode on the fest until after it’s done to make sure we see as many things as we possibly can. However, in the interim, we wanted to share a couple of interviews with folks behind films playing as part of the festival. First up is an interview with director Harry Sherriff and co-writer Laurence Tratalos about their feature, Misper, wherein the employees of a dying seaside hotel have their lives upended when their colleague vanishes. Following that, we spoke with director Curtis Matzke ahead of the world premiere of his documentary, First Feature, which tells the story of intrepid student filmmaker Thomas Reilly-King (affectionately known as TRK), who will do anything to complete his first feature film, aptly titled Enduring Destiny. Take a listen and enjoy! We’ll be back in a couple of weeks with our full Chattanooga Film Fest rundown.
