For today’s daily NYFF62 podcast, directors Guy Maddin, Evan Johnson, & Galen Johnson, and cast members Cate Blanchett and Denis Menochet join NYFF programmer Rachel Rosen to discuss the NYFF62 Spotlight selection Rumours.

The world’s wealthy democratic world leaders have come together for the annual G7 summit, yet a major crisis looms on the horizon: potential human apocalypse. This sci-fi pulp satire finds Canadian trickster extraordinaire Guy Maddin and fellow Manitoban co-directors Evan Johnson and Galen Johnson in a particularly wacky mood.

Rumours opens in theaters on October 18, courtesy of Bleecker Street. Don’t forget to subscribe here for more filmmaker conversations.
