This week we hop in our tiny metal plane to Wes Anderson’s Isle of Dogs. Locked in to the recording kennel to discuss Anderson’s latest stop motion passion piece, Sam and Jake are joined by Beth Webb, film journalist and programmer for Bechdel Test Fest, and writer of the Isle of Dogs feature in the latest Curzon Magazine. Plus, Mark Waring, the director of animation for the film shares his insights into creating this furry beautiful isle.

In Wes’s fully realised world, canine flu has caused widespread panic and the world’s dog population has been quarantined on a remote island. Young Atari has made his way to the Isle of Dogs in order to retrieve his pet Spots. There, a gang of dogs decide to help him, but it’s a race against time.
