Cannes 78: Imago - Interview with Déni Oumar Pitsaev

Welcome back to our coverage of the 78th Cannes Film Festival episode three! This is the first time that we have had the chance to sit down with a director at Cannes. The film, Imago, featured in the Semaine de la Critique side section and picked up two prizes this past week: The French Touch and the Golden Eye. We talk to director Déni Oumar Pitsaev about some of the themes in this highly personal hybrid documentary film about the filmmaker's empathetic exploration and confrontation with a foreign yet familial place where culture, tradition, and displacement disparity between the symbolic and semantic: 'home' and 'house'; representing a universal entanglement with one's roots.
