“It’s always there—the dark feeling that the world’s going to hell”

Caitlin Cronenberg grew up on the film sets of her director father, David Cronenberg, but she spent the first two decades of her career as a portraitist. Now, she’s entering the family business with her directorial debut, Humane, a dark-yet-comedic thriller set in an eco-dystopia. “Being a set photographer—literally the least important person on set—also taught me how to run one,” she says. We spoke to the youngest Cronenberg about climate anxiety, her love of Veronica Mars and the value of perspective in show business.
