Liz Rosenthal, co-curator of Venice VR at the Venice International Film Festival with Michel Reilhac, joins host Noah Nelson to talk about the 2020 edition. This year’s event is Venice VR Expanded, a hybrid digital/physical exposition of over 40 works in VR — from 360 film to live theatrical performances — across a host of venues virtual and physical.

And the best news: if you own a VR headset of just about any stripe, you can experience some of the programming at home as the festival unfolds.

On top of all that: this is just a great conversation.

Venice VR Expanded runs Wed, Sep 2, 2020 — Sat, Sep 12, 2020.
