Hello, this is Simon Brew. I'm the editor of Film Stories magazine and a very warm welcome to a very special episode of the Film Stories podcast.

Come with me. And I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

And movies.

Movies that had stories.

That the story just sucks a man.

This is just the beginning.

We would be honored if you would join us.

Hello and a very warm welcome to Film Stories with Simon Brew.

I am Simon Brew as always. It's absolutely everything you need to know about me.

The only podcast though is given away by the title.

I'm here to talk of the stories of films.

I tend to talk about production stories, marketing stories, release stories, distribution stories,

all the ingredients really that go towards making the films that we know and sometimes love, just that the films

that we know and sometimes love. The films I tend to cover on this podcast, they lean more towards

the mainstream than anything else. They're films I'm interested in or invested in to some degree.

I try not to do snark. I try not to punch down.

This podcast is a celebration of cinema and a real appreciation that somehow, somehow films managed to get made.

This particular episode of film stories is one of my occasional specials where I bring in a

filmmaker to talk about their latest release and stroke or their

body of work and you're getting a bit of both in this one. I think I mean, I really enjoyed

doing the interview for this podcast and I think and hope you'll agree that the subject of it is

absolutely fascinating. It's director Patricia Riggum who is talking about her brand new movie, the action film G20 going on to prime video as this podcast has been released and starring Viola Davis.
