Last year, Venice Golden Lion-winning “Happening” director Audrey Diwan presided over a Critics’ Week jury that included German actor and choreographer Franz Rogowski, Sundance programmer Kim Yutani, Portuguese cinematographer Rui Poças and Indian journalist Meenakshi Shedde. The competition, which opened with “Ama Gloria”by Marie Amachoukeli, saw Amanda Nell Eu’s “Tiger Stripes” win the Grand Prize and other awards given to “It’s Raining in the House” by Paloma Sermon-Daï, Jovan Ginić for his performance in “Lost Country” and “Boléro” by Nans Laborde-Jourdáa. The Cannes Film Festival will run May 14-25, with titles already confirmed including Francis Ford Coppola’s long-awaited “Megalopolis” and George Miller’s Mad Max prequel “Furiosa”.
