]]>Triet joined in the ranks of Jane Campion and Julia Ducournau as the third female winner of the festival’s biggest prize. Ducournau was even a member of this year’s main competition jury alongside Ruben Östlund, who admitted it wasn’t easy to pick the ultimate Palme d’Or winner.
“We had a lot of fun and intense discussions. It was exhausting in the end. The day was emotional… It was a very strong lineup. It wasn’t easy. We each had to fight for what we believed. I really believe it was a very strong lineup this year,” said Östlund.
Triet received Palme d’Or from the Hollywood legend Jane Fonda, who reflected on the progress that the Cannes Film Festival went through since her first appearance in 1963, but added that we still “have a long way to go” in terms of female representation.
The Cannes Film Festival took place between May 16-27, and many of the year’s most anticipated films had their world premieres at the festival, including Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, Killers of the Flower Moon, Asteroid City, and Elemental.

]]>Triangle of Sadness follows the trials and tribulations of a celebrity fashion model couple, played by Harris Dickinson and Charlbi Dean. They decide to join a cruise for the super-rich, but things don’t exactly go according to plan after the ship sinks and they end up on a deserted island with the rest of the survivors.
Triangle of Sadness marks Ostlund’s big comeback, as it premiered in Cannes five years after the Swedish director won his first Palme d’Or with The Square. He’s also the recipient of the Un Certain Regard Jury Prize for his work on Force Majeure in 2014.
As for this year’s Grand Prix, this prestigious honor was shared by two films – Claire Denis’ Stars At Noon and Lukas Dhont’s Close. Park Chan-wook received the award for the best director with Decision To Leave.
The 75th Cannes Film Festival took place between May 17 and May 28, returning to its full spectator capacity for the first time since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.

]]>In the 71 editions of the film festival, which takes place annually in the south of France, only 82 women have been honored by the Official Selection.
In an attempt to draw attention to the issue, Thor: Ragnarok actress, Cate Blanchett, Belgian director, Agnes Varda, led a silent protest on the red carpet.
82 female figures, including Café Society actress Kristen Stewart, Marion Cotillard of Assassin’s Creed, Selma director Ava DuVernay and Spectre star Lea Seydoux, adorned the steps silently.
Blanchett — who is this year’s Grand Jury President — read a statement declaring, “We all face unique challenges but we stand on the steps today as a symbol of our determination and commitment to progress. We are writers, we are producers, we are directors, actresses, cinematographers, talent agents, editors, distributors and all of us are involved in the cinematic arts. 82 women, representing the number of female directors who have climbed these stairs since the first edition of the Cannes Film Festival since 1946. In the same period, 1,688 male directors have climbed these very stairs.”
We look forward to seeing all the women to follow.
