It’s Only the End of the World: An interview with Xavier Dolan

Tonight Xavier Dolan’s latest film Juste la Fin du Monde (Only The End of the World) premiered at the London Film Festival, with Marion Cotilliard and Léa Seydoux walking the red-carpet.

We talked to Xavier Dolan about what made him want to do this film,  why it was so divisive at the Cannes festival earlier in the year, and why cinema needs to be used to tell the stories of marginalised groups in society
