LISTEN to today's show featuring Ilana Rein
Ilana Rein is an LA-based director and screenwriter whose documentaries and short films have been screened at festivals, galleries and universities internationally. Her award-winning documentary short WE ARE ALL CYLONS premiered at Sci-Fi London in 2011 and enjoyed a long international festival run. She also wrote and directed the short film ELLIPSE, which was shot on location at The Royal Observatory in the U.K. and premiered in May 2013 at the BFI in London. What’s interesting about her is that despite her extensive career as a filmmaker, she did not get around to making her first feature film until she was 50, something I find extremely inspiring and shows that it’s never too late!
Written and directed by Ilana Rein and co-written with Brian Smith, PERCEPTION is provocative thriller about the psychic phenomena that shows the struggle between one’s beliefs and one’s ability to question them. Check out the trailer below along with additional info on the film and let me know what you think. Would love to set up a time for you and Ilana to chat on your radio show if you have time.
