BONUS EPISODE! A 74th Cannes Film Festival Special! In a special, bonus episode and just in time for their premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, I had the pleasure to interview Mina Mileva and Vesela Kazakova, Bulgarian director, screenwriter and producer duo, in Paris, before they head to Cannes to showcase their new film ' Women Do Cry' in the 'Un Certain Regard' section. The dynamic director & producer duo Mina Mileva and Vesela Kazakova has created a strong wave of political activism in their own country Bulgaria with their political documentary "The Beast is still alive", aired by ARTE for the 30th Anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall. The tandem made their first fiction film "Cat in the wall" in 2019 which deals with East European migrants in London awarded for Best Bulgarian Film at Sofia Film Fest. "Women Do Cry" is their next fiction film - coproduction with France (Ici et La productions), supported by ARTE France , mk2 productions and the Bulgarian National Film Centre. In "Women Do Cry", the duo expose with 'Borat 2' breakthrough star Maria Bakalova, the absurd yet sadly realistic contradictions in Bulgarian society. In this podcast, we chat all about their career beginnings, what they hope for women in cinema in the future, and more! DISCLAIMER: There were some sound and connection issues over Zoom (they were calling from Paris, not me, as it may have sounded in the intro!) but tried to get rid of any glitches, thank you for your understanding!
