The independently-produced feature film 'Blame' took home the best actress prize at the 2017 Tribeca Film Festival. But the story of how the movie actually got to the festival in the first place is just as interesting as its subject matter. We're joined now by actress Nadia Alexander, and Quinn Shephard, who wrote, directed, produced, and acted in the film.
Shephard has been working on "Blame," a modern retelling of "The Crucible," since she was 15. She began to make the film at age 20, only to have her main investor pulled out at the last minute.
Shephard liquidated her college fund to pay for the production. When she was left without any money for post-production, she called in favors, worked out deals, and lived in basements while editing it herself.
Actress Nadia Alexander won the Best Actress Award at Tribeca. Both women agree that the #MeToo era has opened more doors for women in the industry.
