Deadline’s Doc Talk Podcast: Directors Maite Alberdi And Kaouther Ben Hania Reveal Secrets From Their Oscar-Nominated Films


Maite Alberdi and Kaouther Ben Hania discuss their respective Oscar-nominated documentaries The Eternal Memory and Four Daughters.

(She also shares news on the fictional adaptation of The Mole Agent, confirming which Hollywood star has been cast as Sergio, the lovable man charged with investigating a possible crime at an old folks home). In Four Daughters, Ben Hania explores a story from her native Tunisia — the case of a woman named Olfa who raised four girls, only to see the two eldest fall under the sway of radical Islamist ideology and join ISIS. In the new episode of Doc Talk, we also revisit our interview from last fall with Moses Bwayo and Christopher Sharp, directors of the Oscar-nominated documentary Bobi Wine: The People’s President.
