But there's certainly so much that is left on the cutting room floor, so many interviews that we couldn't squeeze in. And i think for that reason, like sophia novel deserves her own movie,. There are so many people that are working on these issues that it's near impossible, i think, to include everything in one film. I do think that you guys made a really strategic choice, though, in the people that you did choose to include.
How do you make a film that impacts more than 100 million people in 190 countries in 30 languages?
This week on Your Undivided Attention, we're going behind the curtain on The Social Dilemma — the Netflix documentary about the dark consequences of the social media business model, which featured the Center for Humane Technology. On the heels of the film's 1-year anniversary and winning of 2 Emmy Awards, we're talking with Exposure Labs' Director Jeff Orlowski-Yang and Producer Larissa Rhodes. What moved Jeff and Larissa to shift their focus from climate change to social media? How did the film transform countless lives, including ours and possibly yours? What might we do differently if we were producing the film today?
Join us as we explore the reverberations of The Social Dilemma — which we're still feeling the effects of over one year later.
