PODCAST | Matt Micucci interviews Liene Linde, director of the film Seven Awkward Sex Scenes. Part One.

Fred Film Radio is media partner of the European Film Promotion (EFP) Future Frames, which presents ten outstanding young directors with their latest work at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. Director Liene Linde, from Latvia, was among those selected this year, and she presented her film Seven Awkward Sex Scenes. Part One. In this interview, Linde tells us that the movie talks about sex and filmmaking and that they are two things that go together well. Besides elaborating on this statement, the director also talks to us about her opinions on the representation of sex in cinema and even whether the internet is any better at representing sexuality, talks to us about the frustrations of getting a film financed and how it affects the creative process, her experience as part of this year’s Future Frames, and more – such as why the title of her short refers to it being a “part one”.

Seven Awkward Sex Scenes. Part One: a young filmmaker struggles to defend a film about her own life. Director Liene Linde plays a director who struggles for the right to shoot a film, screen it before an audience, and not back down even one inch concerning what she wants to express. Employing humor and understanding, she comments on the lives of contemporary young women, but also on the challenges of making a movie.
