Russian director Kirill Serebrennikov presented his new film at the 78th Cannes Film Festival with the badge of the Legion of Honor on his chest. The corresponding video was published by the Izvestia portal in the telegram channel.
Serebrennikov's new film "The Disappearance of Josef Mengele" (Disappearance, 2025) is based on the novel by Olivier Geze about the most famous Nazi doctor who conducted experiments on Auschwitz prisoners. The main role in the film was played by August Diehl, who embodied the image of Woland in Mikhail Lokshin's film "The Master and Margarita".
The painting "The Disappearance of Josef Mengele" was presented as part of the Cannes Premiere program. This is the third film by the Russian director, which premieres at the Cannes Film Festival.
As reported by EADaily, on May 17, Serebrennikov was awarded the Order of the Legion of Honor — the highest state award of France. The badge of honor was presented to him personally by the Minister of Culture of France Rashida Dati.
