Isabella Liistro

Film studies graduate, writer and theatre supervisor from down under. Film became my escape from the harshness of puberty and now as an adult, it’s become my favourite source of immersion and joy. I am a huge advocate for theatre-going alone, it’s so remedial for me. Although, after 8 years of watching how the sausage gets made, popcorn is wildly overrated. You’ll find me sitting in the centre of row D with a California roll and a packet of Smiths Originals. I’ve been writing reviews and discussion pieces since graduating from uni before translating that passion into a film podcast and my carefully curated Letterboxd profile. I hope to one day find myself sitting centre of row D with a notepad at an abundance of international film festivals.
