What if the next big Hollywood filmmaker isn't discovered at a studio, but on YouTube?

In this episode of Global Flow, Dramos breaks down how Curry Barker went from making YouTube sketches and working at Starbucks to creating Obsession, a horror film reportedly made for just $750,000 that became a massive box-office success.

But this story is bigger than one movie. From Kane Parsons turning The Backrooms into a major Hollywood production to Issa Rae building her career independently, we're exploring how technology, social media, and new distribution platforms are transforming the entertainment industry.

Plus, we dive into the rise of micro-dramas, the changing economics of Hollywood, and why the next generation of creatives may have more opportunities than ever before.

The takeaway? Hollywood isn't disappearing. It's evolving. And the people willing to create, adapt, and bet on themselves have an opportunity to shape what comes next.
