Today I welcome filmmaker Brendan Geraghty to the show. His documentary film Motel Drive is playing at the 2023 Slamdance Film Festival and will premiere at the Treasure Mountain Inn Sunday Jan 22 at 1:15PM.
A Second Screening will take place Thursday Jan 26th, 2:45 PM.
Motel Drive is one of my top picks this year from both Slamdance and Sundance - I encourage you to check it out. If you are not able to get to Park City you can find Motel Drive and all of the festival's programming on the Slamdance Channel between January 23 and the 29th.
I had a great time talking to Brendan about the film and about his career. I look forward to seeing more of his work in the future.
Thanks for listening!

Motel Drive - Logline:
Within a community of motels infamous for illicit activity, the Shaw Family grapples with housing insecurity and addiction while trying to raise their young son. When California's High-Speed Rail Project displaces them, a glimpse of stability appears within reach. A vérité, street level vantage of post-industrial America, documented over eight years, on one city block.
