In this episode, host Sandra Abrams chats with three WIFV members about their independent feature film, THE OTHER YOU, and how the movie went from an idea during the pandemic to its premiere during the DC Independent Film Festival in March 2025. The surreal comedy sheds light on how a wife and mother tries to find time to work on her writing when a portal in her closet shows her another version of her life. Will she stay or will she go? Director Shoshana Rosenbaum and writer Julie Gold share how they got funding, and producer Robin Noonan-Price tells how she switched gears to get the film made on time when a storm almost derailed the production. Robin, who is a past president of WIFV, also answers questions on being named one of WIFV’s 2025 Women of Vision honorees. Congratulations to Robin!
