Cannes Highlights Little Joe (2019) - The Blossom Scene (35mm Focal Length) Jessica Hausner (Film Director): “All of my films have quite an artificial look, and I aim to show it is a film. I like artificial settings, colors, costumes and obvious camera movements. The scenes are strongly choreographed. I explained to the actors it is choreographed, there are complicated scenes, long rehearsals, but still want them to be authentic within that.” A post shared by @ cineflux on
