KCRW invites you to another Behind the Screens conversation featuring KCRW host Madeleine Brand and Radha Blank, writer, director and star of Netflix's new film "The Forty-Year-Old Version."
Radha, a down-on-her-luck NY playwright, is desperate for a breakthrough before 40. But when she foils what seems like her last shot at success, she’s left with no choice but to reinvent herself as rapper, RadhaMUSPrime. The "Forty-Year-Old Version" follows Radha as she vacillates between the worlds of hip hop and theater on a quest to find her true voice.
Winner of the Directing Prize at The 2020 Sundance Film Festival, "The Forty-Year-Old Version" is a hilariously candid and deeply personal debut from writer/director Radha Blank. A fresh addition to the New York City slice-of-life canon shot in lush black and white 35mm, Blank’s film is an ode to the unfulfilled, and those whose adversity gives them a one-of-a-kind story to tell.
