This year's Golden Camera jury will be overseen by Paolozzi and Emmanuel Bart at this year's Cannes Film Festival, organizers said on Tuesday.
French actress Béart and director-lyricist Bálogi will head the jury that will select the best first film from the film festival's official selections, organizers said.
„Being a self-taught filmmaker and a filmmaker from the Congolese diaspora, it is a great honor to discover the vitality of the directors for the first time, their strong personalities and their early work. The identity of their filmography,” said Baloji in a statement.
Emmanuelle Béart added in her own statement: “The first film is about the inability to do anything other than explore the depths of one's soul and discover what we cannot be silent about. The deeply moving and terrifying Free Birth: No One's Waiting for You Yet. We honor our duty with wonder and reverence.
The Camera d'Or is awarded to the best first film across the festival's Official Selection and Un Certain Regard categories, as well as the Official Sidebars of Critics' Week and Directors' Fortnight. Prizes are awarded during the main ceremony on the closing day of the ceremony.
Last year, the Camera d'Or was awarded to Pam Thien An Inside the yellow cocoon shell The jury was chaired by French actress Anas Demostier. The Camera d'Or has produced many directors who have become Cannes regulars, including Jim Jarmusch, Pascal Ferran and Naomi Kavas.
