Episode 116 | Sheridan O'Donnell (filmmaker) returns to the podcast! In this episode, we discuss the exciting theatrical release of Sheridan's first feature film, Little Brother, and how retinitis pigmentosa leaves its fingerprints on his filmmaking. ------------------------- Gravitas Ventures is set to release LITTLE BROTHER in-theaters on September 17th, 2024. LITTLE BROTHER stars Daniel Diemer (UNDER THE BRIDGE), Phillip Ettinger (FIRST REFORMED), and Academy Award-winner J.K. Simmons (WHIPLASH) in the heartfelt and highly personal debut feature from the Korean-American writer, director, and low-vision disability advocate Sheridan O’Donnell. Following his friend’s death by suicide, O’Donnell wrote the film in remembrance to "capture their warmth and humor, and to attempt to understand their mental health journey, all of which I hope deeply connects with viewers.” Scoring the Audience Award at the 2023 Atlanta Film Festival, LITTLE BROTHER begins after Pete (Ettinger) attempts suicide, pushing his overbearing father Warren (Simmons) to recruit his little brother Jake (Diemer) to drive Pete from Albuquerque to Seattle for a family intervention. The brothers aren’t just oil and water; they’re fire and gasoline—and they’re both crammed inside a busted-up van for 1,400 miles with nowhere to hide. As they cross the American West, the two struggle to reconcile their past and forge a new bond. ------------------------- SEE-THROUGH is hosted by Lance Johnson.

Envision creates AI fueled tools for the blind and visually impaired community such as the Envision glasses and app. According to Karthik, AI is the best thing to happen for accessibility in all of human history! In this episode, you'll learn why that is and what to expect for the future. SEE-THROUGH is hosted by Lance Johnson. Based in New York City, Lance is a video editor living with a rare and incurable eye condition called retinitis pigmentosa (or RP for short). In most cases, RP causes legal-blindness by the age of 40. Now 33, Lance uses SEE-THROUGH as a platform to explore his inevitable future of blindness through his transparent conversations with his guests. ------------------------- SUPPORT SEE-THROUGH: Merch: ------------------------- ENVISION LINKS: Website: YouTube: Envision's First SEE-THROUGH podcast appearance: Sam Seavey's Envision Glasses Review: ------------------------- FOLLOW SEE-THROUGH: Subscribe: Instagram: TikTok: Twitter: Facebook: Website:
