In this episode of BS’ing with Sean K, Sean Kneese talks to Ursula Monteiro: Brazilian-born actor, director, screenwriter, and photographer. She began her acting career at eight years old in her hometown of Taubate, Sao Paulo. At the age of eighteen, Ursula moved to New York City to pursue her dream of working in theater and film; in 2016 she graduated from Marymount Manhattan College where she earned a B.A. in Theatre, with a concentration in Performing Arts and Directing. Ursula also holds a degree in Acting from the Atlantic Acting School. After years of perfecting her acting craft, in 2018 Ursula started to write and direct her own film projects. In 2020, during the Covid-19 pandemic, Ursula produced her short film debut VAL, and a sketch comedy web series called Never Mind. In this podcast, Ursula talks about her film Val and how it addresses political and social issues in Brazil such as abortion rights and government corruption, her love for independent films, the inspiration behind her sketchy comedy series, and more.
