Summary

"The Eternal Daughter" had its world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival and later played at the Toronto International Film Festival and New York Film Festival (where this interview took place). Director Joanna Hogg and the film's star, Tilda Swinton (who is playing a dual role as both mother and daughter characters), were kind enough to spend some time talking with me about their unique working relationship, friendship, and what went into the aesthetic and emotionally into crafting their latest project coming off of the "The Souvenir" films.
