Lisa Hepner’s favourite expression is she’s not passive-aggressive, just aggressive. That being said, she’s a kick-ass boss who doesn’t take no for an answer. She’s a director, producer and writer of the film, The Human Trial, that I’m producing. She and her cinematographer husband Guy Mossman have been making this feature doc for a decade and, even if Lisa describes it as pushing a boulder up a hill, we’re making some noise. I also like the fact she got a tattoo on her wrist when she was 46. It’s “She persisted,” which is kind of perfect for her. We want to get a tattoo in Vancouver before we go back to LA. Any suggestions?
