This week, Film Comment co-editors Clinton Krute and Devika Girish sit down with Steven Soderbergh, whose latest film, KIMI, premiered on HBO Max last week. The film follows an agoraphobic tech worker played by Zo\xeb Kravitz as she uncovers evidence of a crime and becomes ensnared in an increasingly deadly corporate conspiracy.\xa0\n\nKIMI takes narrative and aesthetic cues from paranoid classics like Rear Window, The Conversation, and Blow Up. But Soderbergh\u2019s typically sleek, imaginative thriller is also utterly contemporary, capturing a world where the twin threats of COVID and surveillance have become part of the fabric of our everyday lives.\n\nClint and Devika chatted with Soderbergh at length about his productive pandemic, his collaboration with screenwriter David Koepp, how Big Tech can make bad ideas even worse, and much more. They also got a little insight into Steven\u2019s next project: Magic Mike\u2019s Last Dance.
