Anissa Latham | Filmmaker

From a 2021 episode of Short Takes, it's Anissa Latham joining the show. If you don't know Anissa, there's still a good chance you've seen her videos. The filmmaker talks about her work with the Birmingham-based production It's a Southern Thing; her short documentary Missing Magic, which was screened at AFI this year and is now streaming on PBS; what she finds uplifting and depressing about Alabama; juxtapositions in herself; fate; and, of course, what's done up real good for her. As if her credentials with AFI and PBS weren't lavish enough, Anissa proves she's the future of film with a joyous and moving talk with host Blaine Duncan.
