To Die A Frenchman
Opening screening of INTERRUPTIONS
In the crumbling neighbourhood of Ville Noir (in Pondicherry), where French street names fade into dust and memories of empire linger like ghosts, seventy-year-old Monsieur Mounissamy lives as a relic of a world that no longer exists.
The film by Pankaj Rishi Kumar explores how decolonization, neo-colonialism, and forced redefinitions of belonging continues to echo across generations. This story (shot over 5 years) compels us to confront how political power reshapes personal destiny in ways still insufficiently acknowledged.
