Aaah, the Cannes Film Festival. An opportunity to laugh at some films, to cry at others, but also to rack your brains at some of the works presented here.
On the program are films dealing with patriarchy and social misery in certain countries of the world, biopics in the form of puzzles to decipher yourself, a great film on mourning in the form of an interminable funeral coupled with a convoluted police investigation, and a work of physical love that takes the form of a fine analysis of power and class relations.
There's no doubt that some of the feature films unveiled at the Cannes Film Festival 2024 required some brainpower. So, if you too are keen to rack your brains once these films are released in cinemas, then indulge yourself with these 6 films unveiled on the Croisette, across all categories.
