I sat down with critics Chloe Lizotte and Ela Bittencourt to highlight some of our favorites from this year’s selection, including Miguel Gomes and Maureen Fazendeiro’s The Tsugua Diaries, Kiyoshi Sugita’s Haruhara-san’s Recorder, Kiro Russo’s El gran movimiento, and Ted Fendt’s Outside Noise, among others. Stay tuned for more coverage of this year’s New York Film Festival, both on the podcast and in the Film Comment Letter.
