Maite Alberdi

So the, the list that I have in front of me, these are alphabetical by last name.

So the first 10, Maite Alberdi, Nels Bangerter, Jocelyn Barnes, Shane Boris, Mislav Chernov, Jimmy Chin and Chai Vasarhelyi, Dan Deacon, Nathan Fielder, Amy Foote, Geeta Gandbhir.

So a mix of directors, uh, producers, uh, a composer, a couple of editors.

Yep.

But it is fascinating when you talk about the filmmakers in the film.

You know, just recently we talked to Maite Alberdi, you know, who really focuses on recreation and, and mixing the real with the recreated, uh, with, with her documentaries.

But the feature films that you talk about, you know, the sense of Nomadland and how much of that was unstructured, I guess, in a certain way, or even Mike Leigh placing people in situations and then just letting it happen and waiting for the magic.

[laughs]

Don't miss this one.

Without further ado, I give you a conversation with director Maite Alberdi.

Good morning, Maite.

Welcome to the podcast.

It's, we don't have so many opportunities to speak about process, so thank you very much.

Thank you.

[gentle music] Thank you to Maite Alberdi for making this film and sharing her time.

See you next time on The Dangerous Art of the Documentary.
