Romanian director Cristian Mungiu has won the Palme d’Or for 'Fjord', a tense family drama starring Sebastian Stan and Renate Reinsve. In FRANCE 24’s special Cannes awards programme, Eve Jackson and critic Emma Jones break down all the major winners from the closing ceremony – from the Grand Prix for 'Minotaur' to the double acting prizes for 'All of a Sudden' and 'Coward'. The conversation also explores how this year’s festival became dominated by stories of war, memory, political division and queer identity. Plus: the emotional impact of the first Rwandan film ever selected in Cannes, 'Ben’Imana', which won the Camera d’Or. From the Croisette, Eve Jackson and Emma Jones look back on one of Cannes’ most political editions in years. #CannesFilmFestival #Fjord #PalmeDOr 🔔 Subscribe to France 24 now: https://f24.my/YTen 🔴 LIVE - Watch FRANCE 24 English 24/7 here: https://f24.my/YTliveEN 🌍 Read the latest International News and Top Stories: https://www.france24.com/en/ Like us on Fa
