The In-Between
Mindy Bledsoe’s The In-Between is a a film about friendship and those awkward stages in life when it’s difficult to know what comes next. Centred on two friends who take a road trip across the American West to visit a brother and say goodbye to a dead sister, it takes in issues around chronic illness, loneliness and learning to be independent. It recently screened at the Dtla film festival and Mindy agreed to chat about both the film itself and how the festival is helping to raise the visibility of female filmmakers.
It’s her first feature as director, but Mindy took on the additional challenge of starring in it, alongside her friend Jennifer Stone, who as also involved in developing and co-writing it. As they both have chronic illnesses like their characters, this was “kind of a no-brainer,” she says. I explain that I have a chronic illness myself.
