«The Owners"Is a Kazakh production from the director of the 2011 film" Realtors. "
There are few productions that come to us from Kazakhstan and on this occasion the Cannes Festival has decided to bet on this production from this Asian country so not very prolific in terms of cinema.
In 2008 they already bet on the French competition for a Kazakh production, «tulpan»By Sergei Dvortsevoy, a film that won the Un Certain Regard Award, in addition to winning other important awards in other competitions, such as Best Film at the Zurich Film Festival or Best Director at the Gijón Film Festival.
In the last few years we have started to get tapes from Kazakhstan. The first outstanding film of this country was «Mongolian»By Sergey Bodrov, which won several awards and the first nomination for his country in the category of best foreign language film at the Oscars.
The last of great interest that has come to us from Kazakhstan has been «Harmony Lessons»By Emir Baigazin, a film that received the Award for Artistic Contribution at the Berlinale 2013.
