Sebastian Silva and his Nasty Baby



When we caught up with Chilean filmmaker Sebastian Silva earlier this summer to talk about his latest movie .... and the first one to be shot entirely in the US .....he gave us a whole new perspective on 'Nasty Baby'.  Filmed in his own apartment in Brooklyn with both he and his cat taking a starring role in front of the camera, he assures us that the story itself is fiction. Well most of it .   When we chatted, the very voluble director had us in stitches of laughter with his very rapid and somewhat dirty wit.  

Here then is the first trailer the film that won the prestigious Teddy Award at the Berlin Film Festival right after some of the more sensitive audience members at Sundance Festival ducked out before the end.  It's a queerguru pick for 'one not to miss' this Fall.


Here too is the full interview we had with Silva at Provincetown Film Festival in June.
