Electric Sheep podcast:
Body and souls
Top row: images from Megumi by Mirjam Van Veelan / bottom row: images from Cold Souls by Sophie Barthes
In the latest Electric Sheep podcast, we’re looking at two films by female directors that deal with issues of absence and loss. Alex Fitch talks to director Sophie Barthes about her film Cold Souls, a Kaufman-esque Science Fiction comedy about soul trafficking starring Paul Giamatti and to Mirjam Van Veelan about her documentary Megumi, about the kidnap of a Japanese girl – Megumi Yokota – in 1977 by North Korea (with thanks to The Barbican for arranging the interview with Mirjam).
