This week (after our holiday break) we continue our discussion on the short film Mila, which may not have been nominated for an Oscar, but has still won several festival awards and has a message compelling enough to bring together 350 different artists from 35 different countries. I talk with the Director and Creator, Cinzia Angelini, whose mother told her stories about her experiences as a little girl during World War 2. We talk about the film, how painting guitars got Cinzia started in Animation, and advice for those with a story that needs to be told, even if the big studios won't tell it.
