Bayeux – The 30th edition of the Prix Bayeux Calvados-Normandie war correspondents awards gives centre stage to women on both sides of the camera, past and present. As a series of exhibitions and screenings highlight, while often depicted as victims of conflict, women are also a driving force behind news coverage from the frontlines and at home.
One of the key exhibitions at this year’s Prix Bayeux festival is “The Other Landings, war correspondents in Normandy”, a detailed look into how journalists covered the D-Day landings on 6 June 1944 and the long battle that ensued.
