Ep. 404: Jessica Kiang on Cannes 2026: Sheep in the Box, The Dreamed Adventure, Too Many Beasts, The Unknown, La Perra, Colony
Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. At the 2026 Cannes Film Festival I sat down with Jessica Kiang of Variety and the Berlinale for our customary epic pod by the light of French Riviera sun. Among the films discussed were Sheep in the Box (directed by Hirokazu Kore-eda), The Dreamed Adventure (Valeska Grisebach), Too Many Beasts (Sarah Arnold), The Unknown (Arthur Harari), La Perra (Dominga Sotomayor), and Colony (Yeon Sang-ho), plus a final word on her levitatingly good absolute favorite of the festival.
