Arts·Q with Tom Power
In an interview with Q guest host Gill Deacon, the acclaimed Canadian filmmaker discusses her new movie, self-worth and the blunt math of dating.
After receiving critical acclaim for her debut film Past Lives, Canadian filmmaker Celine Song has returned with Materialists, a new movie that takes a candid look at the inhumanity of matchmaking and modern dating. As it turns out, Song used to be a matchmaker herself. She sits down with guest host Gill Deacon to talk about her experiences in the field, why she says her "drug of choice is people," and how our weight, height, salaries and hairlines all contribute to the blunt math of dating.
