Day Night Day Night
D: Julia Loktev, USA 2006, 94 min, OV
The first image, the first seconds, of Julia Loktev's nerve-wracking drama throw the viewer into the tense, feverish plot: A 19 year old girl makes preparations to become a human bomb targeting Times Square. At the 59th Cannes Film Festival, "Day Night Day Night" won the Regard Jeune award for young filmmakers in the Directors' Fortnight programme.
