Writer and director Janicza Bravo, and writer and actor Brett Gelman created Lemon, which is one of the most absurd dark comedies in recent memory. We liked it so much that we invited them in for a special episode of Movie Lists to talk about what influenced this breakout movie.

Lemon is going to play at Sundance Next Fest in Los Angeles on Aug. 11 and hits theaters Aug. 18.
