Golden Camera at Cannes 2018 with Girl, the director Lukas Dhont had upset the festival-goers. The Belgian director and screenwriter returns to the Croisette, this time in official competition for the Palme d’Or with his new feature film, Close. Presented on May 26, 2022, the film caused a sensation, applauded by a long standing ovation in the room. Something to delight the performers of this moving work, including Léa Drucker and Emilie Dequenne.
Before attending the screening of close, the film crew climbed the steps towards the large Lumière theater, more united than ever. The talented Emilie Dequenne and Léa Drucker spread their beauty and elegance on the red carpet. The first is more than a regular at the Festival: it was revealed there in 1999 by the drama Rosetta, directed by the Dardenne brothers, which earned him the prize for best actress, while the feature film received the Palme d’Or. At 40 today and now Caesarized (supporting role for The things we say, the things we do)the wife of Michel Ferracci was impeccable in her midnight blue dress which highlighted her waist.
Cesar for Best Actress for Up to the hilt in 2019, Léa Drucker (50) continues to make her way in French cinema, becoming one of the leading women in the 7th hexagonal art. For the evening in Cannes, the mother of Martha (soon to be 8 years old) opted for an outfit combining transparency and a plunging neckline, giving her a divine look.
The feature film Close tells the close friendship between two thirteen-year-old boys, Leo and Remi, which will suddenly be disrupted. Trying to figure out what happened, Leo seeks solace by growing closer to Remi’s mother, Sophie. Kevin Janssens, Gustav De Waele, Eden Dambrine and Marc Weiss formed the male cast of the film, appearing in elegant tuxedos perfect for the occasion.
