IFH 512: Down the First Feature Rabbit Hole with Carlson Young

IFH 512: Down the First Feature Rabbit Hole with Carlson Young

Today on the show we have writer, director and actress Carlson Young. Carlson is the creator of the new film The Blazing World.

Decades after the accidental drowning of her twin sister, a self-destructive young woman (Carlson Young) returns to her family home, finding herself drawn to an alternate dimension where her sister may still be alive. Through an epic journey down the darkest corridors of her imagination, she tries to exorcise the demons pushing her closer and closer to the edge.

The Blazing World premiered at the Sundance Film Festival 2021 to rave reviews. We discuss the difficult process of bringing this personal film to the screen, how she used a short to get the feature film made, how she got financing, shooting durning COVID and much more.

Enjoy my conversation with Carlson Young.
