Past Lives, A Life on the Farm + Anahit’s missive from the Venice Film Festival

On this week's podcast, Jamie, Ellie and Peter escape the heatwave with two films of varying quality – Celine Song's much-hyped Past Lives, and outsider artist doc A Life on the Farm. 

We then get into a chat about films about films, cos we're cool like that, and Anahit saves the day by dialling in from Venice Film Festival. Molto bene, and so on and so forth.
