Continuing his series of interviews with former YDA winners, this year's Jury Chairman, Karim Bartoletti, speaks to 2014 Silver Screen winner, Mary Nighy.

Nighy discusses coming from an acting family and initially taking up a place, from an early age, in front of the camera, starring in such film as Sophia Coppola's 2006 feature, Marie Antoinette

From there Nighy went to film school and currently works directing TV series as well as short films. In the chat with Bartoletti she talks about the difference between working on features and TV projects, the potentially eclectic nature of a director's career and the weird dividing line between the actors and the crew.
