The Oscar Nominated 'A Lien' Episode Featuring Cinematographer Andrea Gavazzi

Join hosts Heather Elaine Abbott & Zoey Danielson as they sit down with cinematographer Andrea Gavazzi to discuss his work on the Oscar-nominated short film A Lein!

A Lein pulls you into the high-stakes intensity of a green card interview—one that could change three lives forever. Directed by critically acclaimed filmmakers Sam and David Cutler-Kreutz, this award-winning short is both a love story and a powerful commentary on a system built to divide rather than unite.

In this episode, Zoey and Heather dive into the art of shooting a short film, the challenges and triumphs of independent filmmaking, and, of course, what it feels like to be nominated for an Oscar… and that’s just the beginning!
