CANNES - A FESTIVAL VIRGIN'S GUIDE

Cannes Film Festival Juries

Prior to the beginning of each event, the Festival de Cannes board of directors appoints four juries who will hold sole responsibility for selecting films from the festival crop which will receive the blessing of a Cannes award. Jurors are chosen from all walks of the international film industry, based on their body of work and respect from their peers. In many cases, jury membership (especially the presidency) is bestowed on a kind of 'lifetime achievement award' basis.

  • Competition Jury
  • Cinéfondation/Short Film Jury
  • Un Certain Regard Jury
  • Caméra d'Or Jury
The members of the juries for the next festival have yet to be announced.
