Filmmakers Saela Davis and Anna Rose Holmer visit Screen Slate HQ to talk about their new feature God’s Creatures, a disquieting family drama set in a tightly knit seaside Irish fishing community. Our discussion included working with actors Emily Watson and Paul Mescal, the influence of dance and choreography on their visual storytelling, and how a last-ditch trip to Google Earth helped them find the perfect coastal fish processing plant location.
