"Violette"
Featuring "Violette,"directed by Aline Conti and "The Loss of A Wrestling Match," directed by Jed Cowley, with TMA faculty members Tom Russell and Brad Barber.
Our first episode features the student-produced dramatic narratives "Violette" and "The Loss of a Wrestling Match." "Violette" tells the story of a young girl dealing with isolation who finds redemption in an unexpected encounter with a shepherd. The film recently premiered at the Santa Monica Film Festival and earned an honorable mention at the 2008 LDS Film Festival. Director Aline Conti joins us and shares insights about how her own childhood in rural Corsica played a part in making this story come to life.
"The Loss of a Wrestling Match," which recently premiered at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, is a semi-autobiographical piece about a high school student’s struggles with perfection and failure. In this segment, we catch up with recent graduate Jed Cowley at his new home in New York City, where he's an MFA film student at Columbia University, to discuss his final film at BYU.
