This week on the podcast I talk to writer/director Gabriel Foster Prior about his debut feature 'The Bystanders' starring comedians Sean Walsh and Nick Helm.
I spoke to Gabriel about how he funded the film, how he managed to release the film theatrically and the advantages of doing so. I chatted to Gabriel while he was in Cannes so also managed to catch up about this year's film festival and sales market.
