S2 Ep11: Film Director Baltasar Kormákur

Binge-Talking with Steve Lacy

Icelandic filmmaker Baltasar Kormakur’s new film ‘Adrift’ documents the harrowing survival tale of a couple stranded by a massive storm in the Pacific in the early 80’s. On this episode of ‘Binge Talking’, we delve into how the film, which stars Shailene Woodley, perfectly illustrates how many amazing stories have yet to be told simply because they weren't told from the perspective of a male lead character. We also dive into why he is not on social media and how achieving financial success as an actor and director makes him the black sheep of his artistic family.
