The 75th edition of the Cannes Film Festival 2022 continued this Friday, May 27, 2022 with the last climb of the steps of a film in competition. On the eve of the closing ceremony, a new film was honored at the Palais des Festivals, namely the work A little brother by Leonor Serraille. Unsurprisingly, the Frenchwoman crackled the flashes of the photographers with the stars of her film, including Ahmed Sylla who offers here an unprecedented acting game. But other personalities caused a stir on the red carpet, like Andie MacDowell assuming her gray hair and Helen Mirren sparkling and with very long hair. The two L’Oréal ambassadors let loose on the Cannes red carpet dancing in front of the photographers.
Among the other personalities present, the singer Priscilla Betti who presented herself in a long cream strapless dress adorned with embroidery (by Christophe Guillarmé) associated with a small pocket carried by hand. She had brushed her long hair to the side. On her social networks, the young artist of 32 years had kept the suspense of this new rise of the steps. Priscilla is a regular on the Cannes red carpet since she walked it last year, but also in 2017 and 2014.
Climbing the stairsA little brother was also marked by the presence of the sublime Lais Ribeiro. The 31-year-old Brazilian model, engaged since 2019 to former basketball player and son of Yannick Noah, Joakim Noah, was dressed in a long yellow dress with a slit. The slits were also so high that the model almost showed too much when climbing the steps of the Palais des Festivals…
The director ofA little brother already awarded in 2017
Léonor Serraille knows the Cannes Film Festival well since she was awarded the Camera d’Or in 2017 for her first feature film Young woman. This year, she hopes to win the coveted Palme d’Or with A little brother, which is scheduled for release in 2022. The work has already been awarded for the screenplay as part of the 2020 Gan Foundation Creation Prize. The pitch? When Rose arrives in France, she moves to the suburbs of Paris with her two sons, Jean and Ernest. Construction and deconstruction of a family, from the end of the 80s to the present day.
All the feature films in competition will be decided by the jury, chaired by Vincent Lindon, before the verdict is given on the evening of Saturday May 28. The ceremony will be broadcast from 8:30 p.m. live on France 2.
