Frank Film Club with Maisie Williams

Shiva Baby (2020)

We have a juicy bonus episode for you! We’ve chosen Shiva Baby (2020) - Emma Seligman’s debut feature film. It’s a brilliant comedy set within a shiva - a Jewish mourning ritual. Danielle, played by Rachel Sennott, joins her parents at a shiva where she has an awkward encounter with her sugar daddy and her ex-girlfriend. And to top it off, we were lucky enough to speak with both Emma Seligman and Rachel Sennott!  In this episode, we discuss how the Shiva Baby feature film grew from a short film directed by Emma while at college, as well as Rachel’s epic goal-setting regimen and their working relationship together! Shiva Baby is available to watch on Amazon Prime (UK) and will be released for streaming on MUBI 11 June, 2022. Season 3 will be launching March 9! We are so excited to discuss 12 new films with you.
