How does a writer decide an idea is worth dedicating years of their life to? And how do you structure a story which is layered with the complexities of how lies are told and how we believe them? Emile speaks with writer and executive producer Samantha Strauss, and See-Saw’s Head of television and film in Australia Liz Watts, about a true story based on a lie, Apple Cider Vinegar. They discuss the similarities between ballet dancing and film making, when sentimentality works, and the allure of the wellness industry in a world coming to grips with the power of social media.
