Team of All That We Imagine As Light after winning Grand Prix
On the last day of Cannes 2024 Film Festival, India scripted history as Payal Kapadia`s `All That We Imagine As Light` won the Grand Prix. The film that stars Kani Kusruti, Divya Prabha and Chayya Kadam in pivotal roles narrates a tale of female friendship against the backdrop of Mumbai. `All That We Imagine As Light` became the first Indian film in 30 years to be selected for the main competition (Palme d`Or).
"This film is about the friendship between three different women and often times women are pitted against each other. This is the way our society is designed and it is really unfortunate. But for me, friendship is an important relationship. It can lead to greater solidarity and inclusivity and empathy towards each other which is why I feel these are the values which we should always strive for," Payal said in her acceptance speech receiving a thunderous applause.
