We're kicking off our Venice Film Festival 2026 coverage with the Horizons section opener, "The Girl With the Leica," a genre bending look at Gerda Taro, the photojournalist whose work helped create the legend of "Robert Capa." We dig into the film's collage style blend of drama and archival footage, Emilia Schüle's performance, and why this festival opener might be the sleeper standout of the whole lineup.
