George Miller told press today in Cannes that his new film 3000 Years of Longing is a fantasy story that is “open to interpretation.”Five years after Mad Max: Fury Road, Miller has brought a very different kind of film to Cannes, where he enjoyed a standing ovation following the screening last night on the Croisette.Adapted from a 1994 AS Byatt novella, Three Thousand Years of Longing stars Tilda Swinton as narratology professor Alithea who encounters a genie – the Djinn, played by a pointy-eared Idris Elba.

The film flips between their conversation in the hotel room and the Djinn’s previous adventures, while he asks her to come up with wishes he can grant.Miller told the packed press room: “Most stories we tell are allegorical.

They’re open to interpretation, depending on who’s watching them. Fantasy stories lend themselves to dealing with much more complex things than, say, a documentary.”And Swinton pointed out how relevant the film is now, explaining: “The thing that’s dangerous is when you have only one story.
