A longtime staple of the LA Film Festival, our Coffee Talks series has brought together filmmakers in lively, fascinating, freewheeling conversations for years. Now, we’ve relaunched the series online so you can join in and enjoy your coffee with other filmmakers at home around the world.

This week we’re thrilled to be joined by Spirit Award-winning directors Tamara Jenkins (The Slums of Beverly Hills, The Savages, Private Life) and Wash Westmoreland (Quinceañera, Still Alice, Earthquake Bird) for another round of filmmaker chit-chat on the craft of making movies. As always, Film Independent Members who’ve tuned in live will have the opportunity to submit questions.

Coffee Talks events are open to all Film Independent Members. If you’re a Film Lover or Arts Circle Member, you’ll be invited to register in advance.
