Podtalk: Director Nadine Labaki Creates ‘Capernaum’
Submitted by PatrickMcD on January 4, 2019 - 11:44pmCHICAGO – One of the best films of 2018 is “Capernaum.” The title means “Chaos,” and co-writer/director Nadine Labaki certainly created a form of that action in the crazy quilt journey of the main character of Zain, an undocumented immigrant boy in Lebanon. From a story that takes us from his street survival to a court of law… suing his parents, “Capernaum” is a multi-layered masterpiece.
