It’s the story of a man breaking free of the past and finally moving towards his future. It’s about coming to terms with who you are, and where you are. And it’s funny.</p> <p>How did this idea come about, was there a eureka moment?</p> <p>Alicia, Jess and I were discussing locations and I had an image of a man being left alone in the middle of the desert. It made me think: what happens at the moment when you have to face who you really are?</p> <p>What is your writing process like (do you write every day, at a desk, in cafes)?</p> <p>I write pretty much every day. I usually write at home at my desk, because I get easily distracted in public places.</p> <p>How did you first hook up with On the Leesh? Was it when you wrote Greed for Sin?</p> <p>Yes. I had been referred to On The Leesh by a mutual friend, and they happened to be starting the “Sin” project. Good timing.</p> <p>As the writer, what do you envision as the best possible outcome of this full-lengh film project?</p> <p>Hopefully we will make a funny, intelligent and moving film that everyone will love and then we’ll get to make more and more!</p> <pre><code>http://ontheleesh.com/img/blog/daria.jpg</code></pre> Tue, 20 Dec 2005 10:59:00 PST <a href="/articles/2005/12/20/interview-with-screenwriter-daria-polatin">Interview with Screenwriter, Daria Polatin</a> <a href="/articles/2005/12/20/interview-with-screenwriter-daria-polatin">Interview with Screenwriter, Daria Polatin</a>
