Andrea and Sean Fine: LFG (HBO Max)
Listen now
Description
Andrea & Sean Fine met serendipitously working at National Geographic and fell in love over their passion for movies and storytelling.  The couple decided to leave Nat Geo and make their own films, and boy was that a good idea. Their first feature documentary War/Dance about Ugandan child soldiers, garnered their first Academy Award nomination, and then they hit the red carpet again in 2013 but this time they were victorious winning an Oscar for their short documentary, Inocente. Just recently, they took aim at the US Soccer Federation with their film LFG!, documenting the US Women’s Soccer team’s fight for equal pay….   Sean’s keen eye for photography was a skill passed down from his grandfather to his father to him.  Andrea’s gift of storytelling starts with her natural ability to connect with people.  Together they collaborate and form a great team, who has learned how to strike the right life balance between work and home.  It’s a skill Sean witnessed firsthand by watching his parents create great content together.  In this episode of beyond the lens presented by Diesel films we focus on their films but the real lessons to be learned are in the journey.  It’s an enjoyable conversation and we hope you like  it as much as we did.
