"Since his time at the site, Goldman has taken on a number of very cool jobs (including one that helped bring Jamie Lee Curtis into his orbit, more on that one to come), but he has long been dedicated to pursuing his primary passion: filmmaking. He's directed seven shorts and written eight of them, and this weekend, he will premiere his first feature at SXSW, 'Sender.'"
"Starring Britt Lower, Rhea Seehorn, David Dastmalchian, Anna Baryshnikov, Utkarsh Ambudkar, and Curtis (she also produces the film), 'Sender' expands upon Goldman's 2022 short 'Return to Sender.' 'Severance' Emmy winner Lower plays Julia, a newly-sober woman trying to get her life back on track. That's a hefty enough ask normally, but when odd packages start showing up at her house - containing items she looked for online but never ordered - things get even weirder."
Russell Goldman transitions from IndieWire intern to filmmaker, premiering his debut feature 'Sender' at SXSW. The film expands on his 2022 short 'Return to Sender' and stars Britt Lower as Julia, a woman in recovery attempting to rebuild her life. The narrative takes a mysterious turn when Julia receives packages containing items she searched for online but never purchased. The ensemble cast includes Rhea Seehorn, David Dastmalchian, Anna Baryshnikov, Utkarsh Ambudkar, and Jamie Lee Curtis, who also produces. Goldman has directed seven shorts and written eight throughout his filmmaking career before this feature debut.
