  • A class of her own

    I am very privileged to meet Edith regularly at a number of film events each year and she is one of the nicest and most down to earth people in that business. An absolute joy to chat to and in a class of her own when it comes to interviewing filmmakers in front of a live audience. This talent has carried over into her gorgeous, insightful and inspiring podcast series.
