As Two Seasons, Two Strangers opens in NYC, I sat down with Sho Miyake to discuss the film, the fights he has with himself as writer and director, discomfort and always wishing he’d gotten to make a Mission Impossible. Really loved this film and talk

🎬 From Manjacaze to New York: Mozambican cinema takes the global stage 🇺🇸🇲🇿

Mozambican director Ique Langa presented his film The Prophet at the New Directors/New Films Festival, a leading platform for emerging voices in global cinema.

The film was screened at Lincoln Center and the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA)—two world-renowned cultural institutions—further elevating the presence of Mozambican cinema on prominent international stages.

From Manjacaze, Gaza Province, to New York City, Ique Langa is part of a new generation of creators bringing Mozambique’s stories and identities to global audiences!

Sho Miyake’s Golden Leopard-winning 'Two Seasons, Two Strangers' is a breathtakingly gorgeous drama that allows the pleasure of a confected human connection before dropping us in the choppy waters of something far more real.

"I’ll give you two examples of works that served as inspirations. The first is Buster Keaton’s Sherlock Jr., and the second is Tony Scott’s Déjà Vu."

Sho Miyake talks with @blakethinks about his delicate, gorgeously picturesque Golden Leopard-winning 'Two Seasons, Two Strangers,' opening in the U.S. this week: https://t.co/NNAkJ0dovE
