The Cannes Film Festival celebrated its 75th edition this year. For the occasion, no less than 21 films were presented in the official feature film selection.

15:50 – What is ‘Torment on the Islands’ about, which can win multiple prizes?
On the island of Tahiti, in French Polynesia, the High Commissioner of the Republic De Roller, representative of the French State, is a man of calculation with perfect manners. In official receptions such as shady establishments, he constantly takes the pulse of a local population from which anger can emerge at any time. Especially since a rumor is insistent: we have seen a submarine whose ghostly presence would announce a resumption of French nuclear tests.
15:05 – What is “Les Amandiers” about, which can win several prizes?
Director Valeria Bruni Tedeschi talks about her life and her beginnings as an actress at the Amandiers theater in Nanterre. At the end of the 1980s, Stella, Etienne, Adèle and the whole troupe were twenty years old. They pass the entrance examination for the famous school created by Patrice Chéreau and Pierre Romans at the Amandiers theater in Nanterre. Launched at full speed in life, passion, play, love, together they will live the turning point of their lives but also their first great tragedies.
14:10 – What is “Les Bonnes étoiles” about, which can win several prizes?
Four years after his Palme d’Or for “A Family Affair”, the Japanese director Kore-eda returns to Cannes for “Les Bonnes étoiles”. One rainy night, a young woman abandons her baby. He is illegally picked up by two men, determined to find him a new family. During an unusual and unexpected journey across the country, the destiny of those who meet this child will be profoundly changed.
13:15 – What is “Hi-Han”, a contender for the Palme d’or 2022, about?
The 84-year-old Polish filmmaker, Jerzy Skolimowski, invests the Cannes competition with a film that is atypical to say the least, where he adopts the point of view of a donkey lost in nature and witness to the madness of men. EO, a gray donkey with melancholy eyes, meets good people and bad people, experiences joy and sorrow, and the wheel of fortune turns his luck into disaster and his despair into happiness by turns unexpected. But never, at any moment, does he lose his innocence.
12:33 – What is “Close”, a serious candidate for the Palme d’or 2022, about?
“Close” is probably the first film of this Cannes Film Festival 2022 that has won so much praise from critics, so much so that some media, including 20 minutes, believe that it could be a “candidate very serious for the Palme d’Or”. Lukas Dhont, director of “Girl”, staged in this film the friendship between two young boys, damaged when entering college. Ambiguity of male relationships, mourning, forgiveness, all these themes are evoked in this drama. For now, “Close” does not yet have a release date in France.
12:06 – What are the favorite films for the Palme d’or 2022?
The jury of the Cannes Film Festival can often choose other films than those which are hailed by the press. Nevertheless, the opinions of the critics allow to have a first glimpse of what could be the prize list. Among the most cited films to win the Palme d’Or this year, let’s mention “Close” by Lukas Dhont, acclaimed by the press. “Hi-han” is also a serious candidate, while we can expect prizes awarded to “Les bonne étoiles”, “Les Amandiers” or “Torment sur les îles” The jury led by Vincent Lindon may however have a different sensitivity from that of the press, so it is impossible to predict with certainty the final winners.
11:37 – Which film won the last Palme d’Or?
We do not yet know the film that will win the Palme d’or 2022, its name will not be revealed until the end of the evening this Saturday. Last year, the French genre film “Titane”, directed by Julia Ducournau, was crowned by the hands of Spike Lee. “A hero” by Asghar Farhadi and “Compartment n°6” by Juho Kuosmanen won, ex-aqueo, the Grand Prize, while the Jury Prize was awarded, ex-aequo again, to “Memoria” by Apichatpong Weerasethakul and “Ahed’s knee” by Nadav Lapid.
