Episode 19 with Brett Smith

I talk with Brett Smith about his feature directorial debut, FREEDOM'S PATH. In our conversation, we discuss the boldness of making a first feature film a military period piece; how he worked to get the racial component of the film right; where he shot the film; and whether he would make a short first or a feature if he could do it again.

Brett Smith's story shows the level of determination and resilience required to be a successful indie filmmaker.
