Payal Kapadia's Cannes winner All We Imagine as Light begins Oscar-qualifying run with Kerala theatrical release

Hindustan Times  

Written and directed by Kapadia in her narrative directorial debut, All We Imagine as Light follows Prabha, a troubled nurse who receives an unexpected gift from her estranged husband, and Anu, her young roommate seeking intimacy with her boyfriend. The movie will be released in limited cinemas in Kerala starting on September 21, marking its qualifying run for consideration as India's candidate in the Oscars' international feature category. "We are proud to be able to bring this incredible film to audiences in India, starting with Kerala, where the two leading characters of the story are from," Daggubati told Variety. "Indian cinema has a rich legacy of storytelling, and this film captures the Indian experience through characters speaking multiple languages coming from different parts of the country with similar shared dreams to a metropolis like Mumbai," he added. Though it made the French Oscar shortlist, the country eventually chose Jacques Audiard's Emilia Perez for the international feature film race.
