Why the director of Materialists quit her past job as a matchmaker

Acclaimed Canadian filmmaker Celine Song (Past Lives, Materialists) is back with a new movie that takes a candid look at the inhumanity of matchmaking and modern dating.

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.
