British filmmaker Andrea Arnold is set to receive the Golden Coach Award at this year’s Directors Fortnight, which runs alongside the Cannes Film Festival. The French guild described Arnold as an “avid explorer of the fringes of society” and “a dynamiter of social film codes” who has “a knack of sounding out the power of bodies and souls.” “From ‘Milk’ to ‘Red Road,’ from ‘Wuthering Heights’ to ‘American Honey,’ you scrutinize society from every angle, travelling through times and environments, and you embark us with powerful female characters,” reads the letter from the SFR board, which includes Steve Achlepo, Thomas Bidegain and Cédric Klapisch, among others.
