On this episode of The Movie Podcast, Shahbaz and Anthony are joined by Amanda Babaei Vieira and Nicolette Pearse of MAYA & SAMAR. In the film, Maya, a rising journalist at a hip indie website, covers sex and music with free-flowing thought and liberal practice. Samar, a queer Afghan who landed in Greece following a harrowing escape from the Taliban, lives without papers in Athens, dancing in a club for cash. After a fateful meeting on the outskirts of Athens, their worlds collide in a brief yet torrid affair that exposes their conflicting cultures. Maya & Samar is now playing in theatres.
