French actress Anaïs Demoustier will head the Caméra d’Or jury for the 76th Cannes Film Festival.
Alongside Demoustier on the six-person jury are actor Raphael Personnaz; director of photography Nathalie Durand; screenwriter and director Mikael Buch; Sophie Frilley, CEO of Titrafilm; and Nicolas Marcade, editor-in-chief of Fiches du Cinéma et l’Annuel du Cinéma.
The jury will award the Camera d’Or for best first feature film from the Official Selection and parallel sections at the festival’s closing ceremony on Saturday, May 27.
Demoustier is known for films such as Alice And The Mayor, for which she won a best actress Cesar award in 2020; November, which played in Competition at Cannes last year; and Anais In Love, which screened in Critics’ Week at Cannes in 2021.
Last year’s Camera d’Or went to Riley Keough and Gina Gammel for War Pony, while Japanese director Hayakawa Chie received a special mention for Plan 75. Both played in Un Certain Regard.
As previously announced, the Competition jury will be headed by two-time Palme d’Or winner Ruben Ostlund.
