Next up, we welcome James Jones, the director of the documentary “Antidote” on the show.
The film tells the courageous stories of whistleblowers and activists who risk everything to expose Putin's authoritarian regime, facing dire consequences for their bravery.
Áron talks with James about the parallels between “Antidote” and the 2022 documentary “Navalny”, shedding light on the relentless pursuit of truth in the face of tyranny. They also delve a bit into the use of AI in documentary filmmaking, exploring how technology can expand the way true stories, such as this, are told. Additionally, James shares insights into his influences as a journalist-turned-director, offering a unique perspective on his creative process, in our spoiler-free interview.
“Antidote” made its debut at the 2024 Tribeca Film Festival and is set to screen at the DC/DOX Film Festival later this month.
