Tag: Her Nightly Embrace

Writer Adi Tantimedh and I first met at the 1995 Vancouver International Film Festival through British film critic Tony Rayns. Adi was at VIFF with his NYU MFA thesis film while I was there with my “first feature” Flow, a feature compilation of my short films made at UCLA Film School. The fictional filmmaker character in Flow resembled Adi so that many people at the festival thought Adi was me; and hence this doppelganger relationship at a film festival was how we connected. Almost three decades later, I caught up with Adi whose podcast series Sanctuary will be released this month on August 19 by Voyage Media.
