Lulu Wang interviewed by Rhianna Dhillon | BFI London Film Festival 2023 Screen Talk

Описание: Director Lulu Wang - at the BFI London Film Festival to screen episodes of her upcoming Amazon series Expats, which stars Nicole Kidman - talks about her career with film journalist Rhianna Dhillon.

It was while studying music and literature at Boston College that Lulu Wang, inspired by Steven Shainberg’s Secretary, decided to become a filmmaker.

Her shorts Storyteller – co-directed with fellow student Tony Hale – and Pisces attracted critical acclaim and awards, which eventually led to her setting up a production company.

Her first feature, Posthumous, a smart take on the nature of value in the art world, starring Jack Huston and Britt Marling, was released in 2014.

In May 2016, she narrated the story What You Don’t Know for the radio programme The American Life. It was eventually developed into The Farewell, a moving and funny portrait of family dynamics starring Awkwafina. Premiering at Sundance Film Festival in 2019, The Farewell eventually went on to win the Independent Spirit Award for Best Feature.

We are delighted to welcome Lulu Wang to the BFI London Film Festival to speak about her career and her new series Expats.
