Episode notes

Katarina Zhu stars in her own directorial debut, Bunnylovr, which made a splash at Sundance and is now showing in theaters. In it, she grapples with themes of sex, love, and disjointed relationship — but she doesn’t go as dark as Lars von Trier in Nymphomaniac Vol. I —  a movie whose lead, Young Joe, made a teenage Katarina feel seen in ways she hadn’t before. And you better believe Jordan was all-ears to learn why.

After this conversation, Jordan has one quick thing about some action picks for the big and small screen this weekend.

About the show

On Feeling Seen, writer and general enthusiast Jordan Crucchiola invites filmmakers, writers, comedians, and artists to discuss the movie characters that made them “feel seen.” It’s about that instant when a person connects to a piece of art so deeply that they see themselves reflected in it. Every week Jordan gabs it up with a guest about those magical moments when they were watching a film and realized, “That’s me!” It’s an informative, funny, and comforting show about our intimate relationship with movies, the impact they have on our lives, and how they influence our art.
