Episode 48: The Unknown Girl (+ Chi-Raq)

This week we tackle the latest film by Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne, 'The Unknown Girl', on the Curzon Film Podcast; plus there's a discussion on Spike Lee's latest 'Chi-Raq'.'The Unknown Girl' tells the story of a young doctor, compelled to find out the identity of a woman who died after she was refused surgery. A painfully current film, the Dardennes film poses moral and ethical questions, in that piercingly intimate setting, the doctors surgery. There is also a return to form for Spike Lee with 'Chi-Raq', based on the Greek Comedy 'Lysistrata', which one of our podcasters starred in, in her youth. Hosting the podcast this week is Harry Chapman, with guests Jenna Hobbs and Ersi KalentziProduced and edited by Jake CunninghamStudio services by CSRFM.comMusic supplied by incompetech
