039 - Emile Ghessen - Soldier to Filmmaker - Documenting Conflict Zones

  • Summary

  • I spoke to Emile Ghesson, a British conflict documentary journalist and reporter who bridges the gap between conflict reporting and entertainment filmmaking. Ghesson was recruited to the elite Royal Marine Commandos as a young man and has since toured action in Afghanistan and Iraq theaters. He now shoots documentaries in conflict zones, most recently Syria and Armenia. We talked about his previous work, what it's like making film in conflict zones, and what he is about to begin filming next.
