Cannes Day Six: The View From Outside

We open day six with Katharina Rivilis' I'll Be Gone in June, a German exchange student in New Mexico in the weeks after 9/11. Shot from memory, built on a breakout performance by Naomi Cosma, and one of the most quietly spellbinding debuts at this year's festival. We talk about what it means to watch a national tragedy from the outside, and why this film says things about that moment that most American films could not.
