The Marrakech Film Festival opened the doors to Palace Badi, a 16th-century iconic landmark, for a gala dinner attended by Jacob Elordi and Sean Penn.

For its starriest edition to date, the Marrakech Film Festival did more than rolling out the red carpet: it opened the doors to Palace Badi, a 16th-century iconic landmark, for an epic dinner offered by HM Mohammed VI and hosted by HRH Prince Moulay Rachid, accompanied by his wife, Princess Lalla Oum Keltoum. The gala evening kicked off with salutations as Marrakech Festival jury president Luca Guadagnino and fellow jurors, Jacob Elordi, Andrew Garfield and Virginie Efira, as well as honorary guests such as Tim Burton, Monica Bellucci, Sean Penn, David Cronenberg, Justine Triet, Justin Kurzel, Francois Ozon, Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu and Marie-Ange Luciani were introduced to HRH Moulay Rachid and Princess Lalla OumKeltoum one by one. A 12-piece orchestra was playing a wide ranging repertory, including Karl Jenkins’ “Palladio,” Richard Galliano’s “Tango,” Rolf Løvland’s “Secret Garden” and Gabriel Fauré’s “Pavane,” prompting several ovations throughout the evening.
