The 2023 awards season has seen a lot more diversity and representation compared to years past. The 95th Academy Awards has asian nominees represented in 16 categories with Everything Everywhere All At Once really leading that charge with 11 nominations but we’re still struggling to see black leads and female directors recognized. Entertainment journalist and film critic Marriska Fernandes joins the podcast to discuss the mounting pressure on the industry to diversify, her personal journey in film as a woman of colour and the role of critics in today's digital world.
Let’s meet the wildly talented, Marriska.
