Her students have inspired her to write her new book, Entertainment Finance Today. We talk about what it was like to break into Hollywood as a Native German, the importance of weighing the story you want to tell against what it can make, and how to tell impactful stories.

Filmmakers have classically created film to entertain, to make art and profit, to advance technology and narrative structures. In the documentary genre, creating awareness of a certain issue is often the central interest. There is a much greater potential within motion pictures though, namely the capacity to transformative influence – films can change society.
