Episode Details

Daniel V. Masciari is an award-winning filmmaker who unearths magic in seemingly mundane moments of the human experience.

Daniel's passion for directing and editing runs through all his work, captivating critics with his first feature film, Stationed At Home. When it premiered internationally at the Glasgow Film Festival in March 2025, critics hailed it as "an alternative Christmas classic," with many echoing the sentiment that it "could well go down in the history of independent cinema."

STATIONED AT HOME tells the story of a solitary taxi driver on the graveyard shift who, on a
clear and frigid Christmas Eve in 1998 in a small, forgotten city, breathlessly awaits the sight of
the International Space Station. As the hours count down, a parade of offbeat misfits derail his
plans, propelling the story to its exhilarating climax. In this poetic, hilarious and often absurd
tale, complete strangers discover unexpected unity and a newfound understanding of their
place among the stars.

"STATIONED AT HOME is made in the spirit of 70s and 80s independent films, with a raw and
unfiltered approach that captures the essence of storytelling without compromise," said
filmmaker Daniel V. Masciari. "It is a personal and unique embrace of creative freedom,
resulting in a truly uplifting, one-of-a-kind cinematic experience."
