Our latest Roundtable features the Director, Actors, and Writers of the meta psychological thriller/documentary film Ayar.
Floyd Russ decided to approach the film Ayar by inviting the two lead actors, Ariana Ron Pedrique and Vilma Vega to co-write the movie with him, bringing a rich and multi-faceted perspective to the movie. 


The Roundtable features various topics, including the challenges of making one’s first feature film, getting it funded, and finally distributing it.


Most importantly we discuss how the movie tackled the extremely difficult barrier to entry that immigrants face when trying to break into the US/English speaking Film Business, especially when faced with preconceived ideas about what a foreigner’s role should be, especially when they have a foreign accent and different primary language.


Finally, we discuss the Film maker's brave decision to mix the genres of narrative storytelling with documentary, essentially laying the actors bare to movie audiences and smashing the 4th wall in an unforgettable & enriching raw fashion.
