On the stage of the Grand Théâtre Lumière at the Palais des Festivals, our master of ceremonies, actor and director Edouard Baer will welcome the Competition Jury , chaired by Alejandro González Iñárritu.
The 72nd Festival will be officially declared open by Charlotte Gainsbourg and Javier Bardem.
The ceremony will be followed by a screening of Jim Jarmusch'sThe Dead Don't Die, the opening film and first to compete for the Palme d'Or.
