Legendary filmmaker Mike Figgis opens the vault in Unfiltered: The Mike Figgis Podcast, a riveting new podcast that pulls back the curtain on a life spent behind—and beyond—the camera. With exclusive access to his behind-the-scenes experiences on Megadoc, his intimate documentary chronicling Francis Ford Coppola’s audacious epic Megalopolis, Figgis offers a rare front-row view into the mind of a cinematic master at work.
But that’s just the beginning. Across the series, Mike shares untold stories from his own boundary-pushing films like Leaving Las Vegas and Timecode, draws from his extensive personal archive of candid, never-before-heard celebrity interviews, and sits down for wide-ranging conversations with close friends and collaborators.
Part memoir, part masterclass, and part rock ‘n’ roll confessional, Unfiltered: The Mike Figgis Podcast is a raw, revealing portrait of one of cinema’s most restlessly creative minds.
