Rotterdam’s Cinema Regained Features World Premieres From Vani Subramanian, Drissa Touré and Ali Khamraev, as Well as Yuri Klimenko’s Sergei Parajanov Homage
International Film Festival Rotterdam has revealed its Cinema Regained program, which showcases restored classics and documentaries on cinema.
After a 30-year hiatus, Burkinabé director Drissa Touré makes his return with the world premiere of “Mousso Fariman,” co-directed with Stéphane Mbanga, which explores the contradictions in Burkina Faso’s society, focusing on the resilience of women in daily life. Additionally, Christiane Büchner’s “Erzählungen eines Kinogehers” paints a portrait of cinephilia through conversations with Werner Dütsch, a pioneer of German television’s engagement with film culture. Tengiz Abuladze’s “Someone Else’s Children” (1958) presents a tender tale of two siblings seeking a maternal figure, while Vatroslav Mimica’s “Kaja, I’ll Kill You!” (1967) is a bold, fragmented exploration of oppression.
