Cannes Film Festival / Festival du Film de Cannes

17th - 28th of May 2007

The Cannes Film Festival ( French : le Festival international du film de Cannes or simply le Festival de Cannes ) is the world's most prestigious film festival , first held from September 20 to October 5 , 1946 in the resort town of Cannes , in the south of France. Since then, it has been held annually in May with a few exceptions.

Given massive media exposure, the non-public Festival is attended by many movie stars and is a popular venue for movie producers to launch their new films and attempt to sell their works to the distributors who come from all over the globe.

The most prestigious award given out at Cannes is the Palme d'Or (Golden Palm) for the best film; this is sometimes shared by multiple films in one year. The jury of the festival, made of a small international selection of movie professionals, however grants other awards, include the "grand prize" (the second most prestigious award).
