-------
One of Alex's deep cuts of 2024 is Limbo, an Australian film by Indigenous writer-director-cinematographer Ivan Sen. It's one of her top 3 films of the year.
Fewer than 4000 people have logged it on Letterboxd and only 54 critics reviewed it on Rotten Tomatoes (mostly positive!). Even though it had its world premiere in Competition at the Berlinale and is by one of the most important filmmakers working today and certainly one of the most important in Australia.
She realized that the reason she's one of the few critics recommending Limbo is partly because she's one of the few people who saw it! And that's because she had a pre-existing interest in Indigenous films from Australia, which goes back years and has taken a long, circuitous path.
So on today's episode, Alex talks about how she got interested in Indigenous films from Australia, why Limbo is one of the best films of 2024, and why you don't have to have her dedication to the topic to find something to love about the film.
