The Cannes Film Festival managed to avoid pensions reform’s protests and a power cut during its entire duration, but Palme d’Or winning directormade up for both with a fiery political speech that took aim at the French government. Her impassioned plea became instantly viral and has been dominating headlines in French media.
She went on to blame the “neo-liberal government” for promoting a “commodification of culture” and “breaking down the French model cultural exception.” The director seemed to allude to discussions that took place last fall during the exhibition congress during which a number of prominent industry figures attributed the country’s free-falling box office to so-called French “auteur” cinema, and called for a reduction of French films being financed and produced.
Others have criticized Triet for slamming the government even though “Anatomy of a Fall” was financed with the help of the National Film Board subsidies, as well as regional support and pre-buys from French pubcaster France Televisions.
