Jared Milrad interviews actors Edy Ganem and Alejandro de Hoyos, writer/director Erik Bernard, and executive producer Courtney LeMarco about their powerful new film, FREE DEAD OF ALIVE, which premieres on digital platforms on August 9, 2022. FREE DEAD OR ALIVE tells the harrowing story of a young girl who makes a perilous journey from South/Central America to the United States, unaware of the real dangers that lie ahead. Edy, Alejandro, Erik, and Courtney open up about the challenges of making this important film, what Americans need to know about the journey of migrants who seek a better life in the U.S., and why telling stories like these can make Hollywood more inclusive, equitable, and representative.
