They not only brought their own van-life experience into Chloe Zhao’s Nomadland but Bob Wells and Swankie also gifted the film with two amazing performances as actors, playing with two times Oscar winner Frances McDormand. A few days before the Oscar night 2021 where the film is nominated in 6 categories, the two now actors speak about their experience in the film and how Nomadland changed people’s perception and prejudices towards their life style, nomadic life.
