In this interview for the Busan International Short film Festival , I spoke with award-winning and Oscar nominated filmmaker and documentarian Jay Rosenblatt about his films How to Measure a Year, an intimate and surreal examination of the growth of his daughter Ella. We discussed the changes in Ella’s emotional psychological intelligence over the course of 16 years of filming, and Jay’s own perspective as a filmmaker and father.
For his film When We Were Bullies, Jay shared the ways in which the film made him think about his life as a child and adult, and learning accountability for actions he did decades ago, and the importance of being vulnerable as a filmmaker.
