Koreeda film's lead actor wins at Cannes

CANNES, France -- Song Kang-ho of South Korea won best actor for his role in "Broker," directed by Hirokazu Koreeda, at the 75th Cannes Film Festival on Saturday.

The South Korean film tells the story of people who meet at a baby hatch, where people who cannot raise their children leave them anonymously.

This year's Palme d'Or went to "Triangle of Sadness" directed by Ruben Ostlund. Koreeda won the top award in Cannes for "Shoplifters" (Manbiki Kazoku) in 2018.
