Cannes Festival Adds More Films, Including Eugene Jarecki’s Julian Assange Doc ‘The Six Billion Dollar Man,’ Bi Gan’s ‘Resurrection,’ Martin Bourboulon’s ’13 Days, 13 Nights’
Cannes has added Eugene Jarecki's Julian Assange docu, Bi Gan's anticipated 'Resurrection' and Martin Bourboulon's '13 Jours, 13 Nuits' to the lineup.
The Cannes Film Festival has added a final film to the competition, Bi Gan’s anticipated “Resurrection,” as well as Eugene Jarecki’s Julian Assange Documentary “The Six Billion Dollar Man” in Special Screenings, and Martin Bourboulon’s “13 Jours, 13 Nuits” out of competition. “The Six Billion Dollar Man,” which follows Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, was pulled from Sundance earlier this year due to what Jareki described in a statement as “unexpected developments” in the story. The synopsis for “The Six Billion Dollar Man” says, “Julian Assange faced a possible 175 years in prison for exposing U.S. war crimes until events took a turn in this landmark case.”
