I don't use deja-dup myself but from what I can see it is normally integrated with
the file browser so you should have a context menu entry that allows you to restore
a file or directory.
The backup files (such as the one you listed) need to be parsed by deja-dup or
duplicity to extract the file information, they contain all the files you have
backed up.
Hopefully someone who uses it can add more.
Cheers,
Pete
