Gathered around their president Juliette Binoche, the jury of the 78th Cannes Film Festival – which begins on 13 May – are a truly international panel, hailing from the Americas, Asian and African continents. They're tasked with choosing which one of the 22 films in competition walks away with the Palme d'Or and a myriad of other prizes. So who are they?
Juliette Binoche came to the Croisette in 1985 for her first major role in the film Rendez-vous by André Téchiné. Forty years later, the actress is one of the most internationally known French stars, thanks to collaborations with the biggest names in cinema including Michael Haneke, David Cronenberg and Abbas Kiarostami, to name a few.
