Pascal Gavillet, Cecile Lecoultre, Jerome EstebeTwo years away from the stars, the curtain drawn, hope at half mast and glamor put away in a cupboard. In 2020, the biggest film festival in the world did not take place. You have to go back to the war for this to happen. Or the student revolts of May 68.

Without Cannes, cinema was an orphan. The formula may seem grandiloquent, yet it reflects a reality with many faces.
