President: Juliette Binoche has worked in some 70 films and 40 years of artistic curiosity since her first major role in André Téchiné’s Rendez-vous, presented on La Croisette in 1985. Four decades later, she has become an international star and has inspired unexpected collaborations and screenplays that are dear to her heart. She was awarded the Best Actress award in Cannes in 2010: for her role in Abbas Kiarostami’s Certified Copy. After her fifth film in the Official Selection, four more followed, until Trần Anh Hùng’s The Taste of Things in 2023. Winner of the most prestigious awards (Oscar, Bafta, César, best actress awards from the Berlin and Venice film festivals…), Juliette Binoche does not seek virtuosity, preferring to trust only in emotion and the elusive truth of the moment. This is undoubtedly why she is so versatile and unpredictable in her art —her arts actually—, as she strays from movies to TV-series (The Staircase, The New Look), theater (Ivo van Hove), dance (co-creation with Akram Khan), music (Alexandre Tharaud) and painting.
