While the scintillating red carpets of Cannes are broadcast in the homes of the world, those (especially those) who are deemed unworthy of climbing these steps to Eden, are being demolished on social networks with a resentment that left speechless. Already, on May 19, Anna Biolay, 20, daughter of Benjamin Biolay and Chiara Mastroianni, was attacked online about her physique (and her status as a daughter of stars, necessarily boosted) in words of cruelty without name. On Monday, the influencer Léna Situations had to suffer the grossophobia of Internet users who did not find her legs slender enough for their taste and made fun of it with incredible rudeness. Warning, dangerous steps!

Siril Serebrennikov (Leto), dissident Russian filmmaker now exiled in Berlin, did not answer the agonizing question. He contented himself with dancing his joy at having regained his freedom.
