We were on the radio. Listen here.
Cat Smith interviewed actors Tyler Ritter and Molly Wood, and director Nada Djordjevich for KVSY.org. Visit our news section for excerpts of our far-reaching discussion, that touches upon the power of collaboration, awkward first dates, and the long-standing baseball rivalry between Los Angeles and the Bay Area.
Eat Surf Love is a romantic comedy that celebrates the beautiful awkwardness of human encounters. Set in San Francisco, it’s also a love-hate letter to this paradoxical place, nudged between a bay and an ocean, where hearts have been left, lost, and also found.
