Le Mois du doc : projection du film IMAGO de Déni Oumar Pitsaev

Déni is the new owner of a small plot of land in an isolated valley in Georgia, on the border with Chechnya, from which he has been in exile since childhood. He arrives there planning to build a house that contrasts sharply with local customs. A fantasy that revives his memories and those of his uprooted clan who dream of only one thing: getting him married!

Film screening (duration: 108 min), followed by a discussion in the presence of director Déni Oumar Pitsaev.

Déni Oumar Pitsaev was born in Chechnya in 1986 and grew up between Grozny, Saint Petersburg, and Almaty. He studied at Sciences Po Paris before turning to cinema. He then earned a bachelor's degree in directing at INSAS (Institut national supérieur des arts du spectacle) in Brussels, followed by a master's degree in audiovisual arts at LUCA School of Arts, Saint-Lukas campus.

Imago is his first feature film, winner of the Golden Eye (L'Œil d'or) at the Cannes film festival 2025.
