Chilean AIDS Drama ‘The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo’ Wins Un Certain Regard Award at Cannes
British director Molly Manning Walker chairs the jury awarding their picks from the Cannes Film Festival's second-most prestigious competition.
The Cannes Film Festival ‘s second-most prestigious competition, Un Certain Regard, is typically dominated by newer, less heralded names in world cinema. Other buzzy titles in the section this year include Charlie Polinger’s “The Plague,” Akinola Davies Jr.’s “My Father’s Shadow” and the Vicky Krieps starrer “Love Me Tender.” The decision rests with a jury headed by a relative newcomer herself: 31-year-old British writer-director Molly Manning Walker won the top prize in Un Certain Regard two years ago for her vivid debut “How to Have Sex,” and is joined on the panel by directors Louise Courvoisier and Roberto Minervini, actor Nahuel Perez Biscayart and Rotterdam fest director Vanja Kaluđerčić.
