Cin/Drome 2.1b: Clarence Dass - Director's Cut

Time to kick off season two of the Fiji based film chat podcast I started during lockdown.

Since season one there has been a pretty interesting uptick in Fijian made films and so this season I talk exclusively to local filmmakers about their favourite movies.

Episode one sees me talking to filmmaker, illustrator and all around good guy Mr Clarence Dass.

This is the extended ramblers cut in which we discuss, in addition to the movie selections, watching horror movies at 4am with the cats, Marvel content, time travel and multiverses, book recommendations from and about Ancient Rome, cultural specificity, Bollywood movies, Marvel vs DC with a super workable theory about how DC films should always be set in the past and much more...

Enjoy!

Hello and welcome to my podcast site, Veni Vidi Viti: Tales and Talanoa from The Fiji Islands.

Since moving here in 2019 from the UK I have met some fascinating people from an area of the world I previously knew very little about.

I decided to curate this series of talanoa (a Fijian term meaning storytelling, dialogue and forming relationships) as a way for me to learn more about this amazing culture and share with my friends at home and anyone else who might be interested.

As Fiji and the South Pacific enters the geo-political consciousness more and more, I hope these short, informal discussions will provide and introductory understanding of the region and people in the place I now call home.
