Alice Rohrwacher to Preside Over Cannes Caméra d’Or Jury
Italian auteur Alice Rohrwacher will preside over the Cannes Caméra d'or Jury
Rohrwacher’s longstanding rapport with Cannes started with her first feature, coming-of-age drama “Heavenly Body” (“Corpo Celeste”) which launched at the Directors’ Fortnight in 2011 and went on to play several major festivals such as Sundance and New York. “La Chimera,” in which “The Crown” star Josh O’Connor plays a young British archeologist named Arthur who gets involved in an international network of stolen Etruscan artifacts during the 1980s is considered the third film in a trilogy formed with her two previous features. As previously announced, Juliette Binoche will preside over the main jury, while Robert De Niro will receive this year’s honorary Palme d’Or.
