Disclosure Day with Steven Spielberg & David Koepp
What was said
"I think we see with Emily's character, when the bird appears, something happens. They make eye contact. And then she starts speaking in Russian in a way that she doesn't understand. I think that notion that something is activated in her somehow, or given to her somehow, that causes her to have these powers she doesn't even know she is implementing."
David Koepp explained that in Disclosure Day, alien entities grant humans communication abilities through eye contact, allowing instantaneous multilingual fluency and even mathematical comprehension. The protagonist speaks Russian and Korean without prior knowledge after visual contact with a non-human intelligence. This depicts alien communication as psychic rather than linguistic.
