Melissa Barrera (Carmen)

Popcorn Pals interviews star Melissa Barrera about her powerful new film co-starring Paul Mescal and Rossy de Palma. In our chat, Barrera shares her connection to the story and what drew her to the project, including her involvement in authentically representing her Mexican heritage, how terrified she was to dance under the guise of Benjamin Millepiede, and her baptism of fire in training with the Sydney Dance Company. Melissa also shares her experiences filming in the Australian outback in the height of Summer and how special the experience was for her to make this piece of art for audiences. All this and so much more in this very special episode of Popcorn Pals.

Popcorn Pals is a Popcorn Podcast with Leigh and Tim spin-off series.
