	Description:		Sergei Loznitsa is back in Cannes competition at the 78th edition of the festival with “Two prosecutors“. The film marks the director’s return to fiction, almost ten years after Donbass, presented in Un Certain Regard in Cannes. The Ucranian director was at the Festival de Cannes last year with “The invasion“, a documentary showing the everyday life, along two years, of civilians during the war. With “Two prosecutors” Loznitsa brings to big screen Georgy Demidov’s novella, about the authors’ experience in a gulag for 14 years. As it was written in 1969, the book was confiscated by the KGB in the 80’s and then only released in 2009. Loznitsa read it and started working on its adaptation to the big screen in 2020. The reason why the director decided it was the right time to bring this book to the screen is that the situation in Russia and other countries is getting worse and worse everyday. As he said to Variety: “Watching this story from the past, we also recognize the present”. The post “Two Prosecutors”, interview with director Sergei Loznitsa appeared first on Fred Film Radio.
