Our First Truly Odd Episode (Also, Godland) - Episode 77 | All Through a Lens: A Podcast About Film Photography

Full show notes and photos here: allthroughalens.com

On this episode of All Through a Lens we’re experimenting with a slightly new format – the Odd Episode! These are the episodes that somehow fall between our regular episodes and the Dev Party episodes.

Vania and Santa Cruz

First up is Vania who talks about her project in Santa Cruz. She’s filming on Super 8 in the damn water and shooting 120 there too. It’s for an upcoming film that she’ll tell you all about!

Here are some of her photos, which you can pick up here: https://vaniazask.com/store

Godland

We then talk about the new film Godland, directed by Hlynur Palmason. In the 1890s, Lucas, a photographer and priest with the Danish Church, is tasked with establishing a church in Iceland. Rather than taking a boat directly to his destination, he wants to travel across the island on horseback to photograph the people and the land.

It’s a slow, beautiful movie, and the bits about photography are perfectly intertwined in the film and the story. As of this recording, it is only playing in theaters.

Here are some of the random stills that we’ve gathered.
