In this episode, I take you deep into the annual DFI industry incubator, Qumra, held each spring in Doha, Qatar. Through one-on-one mentorship sessions, masterclasses by world cinema greats and screenings and meetups, Qumra helps to launch films people will be watching in Cannes, Venice and beyond.
This year, I spoke to the Masters there -- including recent Oscar winner Walter Salles, Malay filmmaker Lav Diaz and DoP Darius Khondji around the 7th Art, whether they'd ever make a superhero film and what films they remember watching as children. Listen in, for a cinematic adventure of a lifetime.
