The burst of an all-pervading laughter, an ideal of commitment to her art and her times —Juliette Binoche has won over audiences and critics alike, bringing together today’s
greatest filmmakers in her world-class filmography. Exactly 40 years after her first appearance on La Croisette, she will preside over the Jury of the 78th Festival de Cannes, which will
award the Palme d’or on Saturday, May 24.
Juliette Binoche will succeed American director Greta Gerwig. Thus, for the second time in the Festival’s history, one woman in film will take up this prestigious torch from
another.
