MUSTANG By DENIZ GAMZE ERGÜVEN, Producer CG Cinéma, France, Screenwriters Deniz Gamze Ergüven, Alice Winocour, France, Turkey, Germany, Qatar, 2015
France has selected Mustang as its submission for the Oscars' best foreign-language film.
Deniz Gamze Erguven’s drama, which took Cannes’ Directors’ Fortnight Europa Cinemas award, follows five Turkish sisters who have their basic freedoms stripped from them as they become women.
Cannes’ Palme d’Or winner Dheepan, directed by Jacques Audiard, and Stephane Brize’s The Measure of a Man (La Loi de Marche), which took home the Cannes best actor prize for Vincent Lindon, had been considered frontrunners for the selection. Dheepan follows a former soldier, a young woman and a little girl who pose as a family to escape the civil war in Sri Lanka. In The Measure of a Man, Lindon plays an unemployed man who starts a new job that soon sees him facing a moral dilemma.
