THANKS, BABY YODA: Catching Up With PAYDIRT Director Christian Sesma | Film Combat Syndicate
We are eight months into what’s been a year of uncertainty for millions of people in various industries around the world. Invariably, movies are far from the exception with theaters forced to close for an indefinite number of months around the world, some of which reopend, though only to close again.It’s a sting felt by many a filmgoer, including independent filmmaker Christian Sesma whose own career now faces mitigating with certain rules and guidelines in order to maintain a safe working environment. Thus, the force was strong with the AWOL 72 and Vigilante Diaries director, as he was fortunate enough to finish one production earlier this year just before the state of California commenced a period of lockdown.That film, Paydirt, is now just days away from its release as of this Friday, and comes with the added benefit of Sesma’s own career prosperity getting to not only work with a longstanding screen favorite, but also break in new talent.
