In our May-June issue (out now!), Aliza Ma writes about the new film Olivier Assayas\u2019s Non-Fiction, a comedic portrait of a Paris literary set struggling to adapt to the digital age. Her essay begins, \u201cIn the cinema of Olivier Assayas, we find a laboratory of the world.\u201d We had the good fortune to visit that laboratory in a new interview with the director. Film Comment contributor (and Curator of Film at the Museum of Moving Image) Eric Hynes sat down with Assayas for a conversation that expands on the ideas about technology and human relationships contained in Non-Fiction, and which bubble up throughout the director\u2019s movies, such as Irma Vep, Personal Shopper, and Le destin\xe9es. Non-Fiction is in theaters now, including at Film at Lincoln Center.
