Episode Synopsis

There’s one question that never fails to make filmmakers squirm: What’s your story? It sounds simple, but the answer isn’t always obvious. In this episode of Visium, we unpack why that question is so hard to answer—and why it might be the most important one a filmmaker can ask.
We also explore why the screenplay doesn’t hand you the story outright. Like a music score awaiting interpretation, it’s the director’s job to find the emotional core. Story is not what’s written—it’s what’s discovered.  If you’ve ever wondered why some movies move you while others leave you cold (even when they’re technically perfect) this episode offers some answers. It challenges filmmakers to go beyond clarity, and instead, pursue feeling. Because audiences don’t need everything explained—they just need to feel something real.
So… what’s your story? And are you brave enough to find it?
