Interview with Ismenia Mendes from ADIEU LACAN

Richard C. Ledes speaks with Ismenia Mendes on her role as Seriema in ADIEU LACAN.

During casting the conversations I have with actors are very important to me. It’s not that we are going to be sitting down and having long philosophical discussions during filming but having an initial one-on-one moment of speaking together about the work can make all the difference when it counts. The interviews linked below took place long after the filming of ADIEU LACAN ended but I think they stand as continuations of the conversations we first held and the quality of the work is reflected in them.
