Line Producer Eddie Rubin joins us to talk about THE FAREWELL. We learn how the film was deeply autobiographical, and, as Rubin reveals, those real-life connections extended well beyond the script: Director Lulu Wang's own grandmother was on set throughout filming, still unaware of her diagnosis. Rubin also takes us behind the scenes of the film's complicated production in China, including a moment when the crew was mistaken for making a propaganda film, putting their visas and the entire production at risk. Together, Rubin and Host Daniela Taplin-Lundberg reflect on the challenges of bringing ambitious independent films to life, the unexpected obstacles along the way, and why the impact these stories have on audiences makes it all worthwhile. Listen now to hear the international, behind-the-scenes story of THE FAREWELL.
