Ep. 262: Locarno 2024 with Keva York: Invention, Sparrow in the Chimney, Mandico, Vernier

Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. Before the fall schedule of festivals and new releases begins in earnest, the Locarno festival has its say with a few choice selections (last year including one of my favorites, Radu Jude’s Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World). This year, I chatted about the Locarno selection with critic Keva York, who was attending the festival. We discussed a few stimulating movies including Invention (directed by Courtney Stephens), Dragon Dilatation (Bertrand Mandico), Cent mille milliards (Virgil Vernier), and The Sparrow in the Chimney (Ramon Zurcher).

Please note that this episode was recorded earlier in August during the Locarno Festival.
