104: This is Ana Backhaus

Such a pleasure to chat to the fab Ana Backhaus for Podcast #104! Originally from Portugal, and now living in Dubai, Ana was ranked 25th in the world on This is Reportage: Family for 2021, with 6 Reportage Family Awards and a Family Story Award won in the year. We talk about one of her original awards in the episode today, as well as many other things, including: *her documentary family workflow and approach from enquiry to delivery, *quite a few questions about her previous career as a flight attendant, *why the lack of control in documentary is so exhilarating, *our Netflix synopsis game, *why it's so important to be resilient, *social media and self-sabotage, *and much more...
