After the opening ceremony of the 77th Cannes Film Festival held this year in the city of Cannes in the south of France, the "photocall" event was held.

The opening ceremony, presented by French actress Camille Cottin and featuring an exceptional guest of honor, American actress Meryl Streep, was broadcast live in hundreds of cinemas in towns and cities across France.

Outside of the realm of the competition, the festival will premiere the film Le Deuxieme Acte by Quentin Dupieux for the first time anywhere in the world.

This year's film competition includes entrees such as "Kinds of Kindness" by Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos and epic science fiction drama "Megapolis" by double Palme d'Or winner, Francis Ford Coppola.

Asian filmmakers like Jia Zhang-Ke from China with his "Feng Liu Yi Dai (Caught by the Tides)" and Payal Kapadia from India with her "All We Imagine as Light" also shine in the top prize category.

President of the jury is 40-year-old American director Greta Gerwig, whose latest film "Barbie" smashed records.

    Скажем честно - красавиц мало, как и мало по-настоящему красивых, утончённых, стильных нарядов. А некоторые откровенно смешны😅Но, с другой стороны, кино и должно развлекать

  • It hurts me a lot that I'm not there and I have never been in Cannes. It hurts a lot because friends and colleagues younger than me have already been there and I haven't been there yet. It hurts terribly, I'm a complete piece of shit who has achieved nothing in life. I don't have a job, I don't have a high school mature exam and i'm starting for eight once again, I sleep about my parents house. I have been struggling with severe mental disorders for ten years. I have wasted my entire life on the computer and phone. I am also a physically disabled person. On May 11, I decided to go to a psychiatric hospital. I struggle with the victim syndrome, it was formed very early in my life. I want to get to EFA, unfortunately Viviane Gajewski did'nt tell me what I can do to be present in December. I would like to go to New Horizons this year as well. I dream of recording movie recommendations on YouTube from 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022. I have nothing in my life and nothing at the 25 age. Now I would live in Łódź, be in the second year of my PhD in Physics, write for some newspapers and go to Cannes in May. I don't know what to do anymore and it hurts so much. Really, I have no idea. I'm 25 years old and I have nothing, I don't have a mature exam from high school, I don't have a job but i'm looking for three years and i want to gather for a room , I don't have a driving license and I sleep about my parents house. I would like to get a British Council certificate in English C1. For now, all I can do in my life is cry. I haven't signed a contract with OldCamerapl yet. I didn't have time to duplicate the first text in Kaleidoscope Wrocław because the editor fired me for sharing my sadness too often.

    Omar Sy having a blast. He would be great in a film with Lily Gladstone, directed by Greta Gerwig.

    Pourquoi y a-t-il autant de Chinois qui passent d'abord ? Un nouveau film ??

    When people see what they look like, everyone will definitely be horrified. Nobody knows them. Who are those people anyway? Lord God, help us all not to lose our minds. We don't know those people, because in the movies they are disguised and now they look completely like ordinary people.
