Director Gus Van Sant's new film Paranoid Park has attracted everybody's attention at the Cannes Film Festival.

Paranoid Park, which has non-professional actors, is about 16-yeard-old skateboarder Alex, who struggles to come to terms with his life, after accidentally causing the death of a security guard.

"I really like working with non-professionals because I think in doing that I'm trying out things that are natural to them and filming that side of them rather than creating from scratch," Van Sant said.

Gabe Nevins is making his debut in the film and plays the lead role- Alex.
