On this episode of SOUNDS with Tom Needham, we’re diving into Reeling, a powerful new drama making its world premiere at the 2025 SXSW Film Festival.
Joining me are writer-director Yana Alliata, lead actors Ryan Wuestewald, Hans Christopher, and Nikki DeParis, and composer Michael MacAllister.
Executive produced by the legendary Werner Herzog, Reeling follows Ryan, a man struggling with memory loss after a life-altering accident. As he gathers with family and friends at a birthday luau on his Hawaiian homestead, long-buried memories begin to resurface—until one revelation changes everything.
Yana Alliata, known for her work with Herzog, Alexander Payne, and Phillip Noyce, makes her feature directorial debut with this deeply moving film.
With emotionally charged performances from Wuestewald, Christopher, and DeParis, and a haunting score by Michael MacAllister, Reeling promises to leave a lasting impact.
