God’s Country with Julian Higgins and Chloe Okuno (Ep. 371)

Director Julian Higgins discusses his new film, God’s Country, with fellow director Chloe Okuno in a Q&A at the DGA theater in Los Angeles. In the conversation, Higgins discusses pulling off night exteriors on a small budget, the year hiatus during production, and the power of an impassioned letter. Based on a James Lee Burke’s short story "Winter Light" and his own short film of the same name, Higgins’ feature tells the story of a college professor who finds herself drawn into an escalating battle of wills after she confronts two hunters who claim they’re just passing through.
