Episode 58 - My Entire High School Sinking Into The Sea - a podcast by One Week Only - Podcast

Episode 58 of One Week Only! Our key film this week is the hilarious, imaginative animated adventure film "My Entire High School Sinking Into The Sea" about a group of teenagers who must band together to survive when their school falls into the ocean. Directed by graphic novelist Dash Shaw, and featuring the voices of Jason Schwartzman, Lena Dunham, Reggie Watts, Maya Rudolph & Susan Sarandon, it's an exhilarating film that blends unique hand-drawn animation, quirky teen comedy & exciting disaster-movie thrills. The film opens this weekend at the Metrograph in NYC and at the Nuart Theatre in LA. Carlos interviewed Shaw for Filmmaker Magazine about the creation of the film and his animation influences, from anime TV shows to "A Charlie Brown Christmas." (55:40)

We also review the Bulgarian corruption drama "Glory" about a misplaced watch, directed by Kristina Grozeva & Petar Valchanov (10:20); French medical drama "Heal The Living" about a group of people impacted by a tragedy, directed by Katell Quillévéré (26:45); the documentary "Finding Oscar" about the Dos Erres massacre during the the Guatemalan Civil War, directed by Ryan Suffern (35:45); and the character drama "A Woman, A Part" about an actress going through an existential crisis, directed by Elisabeth Subrin (45:30).
