Belgian rapper and filmmaker Baloji and French film actress Emmanuelle Béart have been announced as co-presidents of the Cannes Film Festival’s Caméra d’Or jury for the upcoming 77th edition, running from May 14 to 25.
The award for the best first film is open to all the debut feature films presented in Official Selection and the parallel sections of Directors’ Fortnight and Critics’ Week.
The Caméra d’Or Jury has been co-chaired three times before: by actress Françoise Fabian and director Daniel Schmid in 1996, by Marthe Keller and Géraldine Chaplin in 2002, and by brothers Luc and Jean-Pierre Dardenne in 2006.
Announcing the pair today, the festival described Baloji and Demoustier as “free spirits with no limits, who rely on their art to achieve creative freedom.” Baloji is best known for his directorial debut Omen, which debuted at last year’s Cannes Film Festival, where it picked up the New Voice Prize in Un Certain Regard. Béart is a French screen veteran with over 60 credits across features like Mission: Impossible (1996), Nelly and Mr. Arnaud (1995), and 8 Women (2002).
“Being a self-taught filmmaker and a filmmaker from the Congolese diaspora, it’s a great honor to be able to witness the vitality of first-time directors, to discover their strong singularities and their inaugural work, which will have a lasting impact on the identity of their filmography,” said Baloji.
Béart added: “A first film is about the impossibility of doing anything other than delving into the depths of one’s being to find out what we can’t keep quiet about. A deeply moving and terribly free birth: no one is waiting for you yet. We will honor our duty with wonder and respect.”

Until now, the doc had only officially been sold on out-of-print — and grainy — VHS and laserdisc copies.Reviews of “Let It Be” weren’t euphoric at the time, but The Post enjoyed it.“The most remarkable thing about the picture is the way it sustains interest, so unexpectedly, throughout the long session and without all the written assists that customarily pep up entertainments of this sort,” Post critic Archer Winsten wrote in May 1970.Director Michael Lindsay-Hogg, 83, said in a statement that the release was hampered by the Beatles’ recent split.“ ‘Let It Be’ was ready to go in October/November 1969, but it didn’t come out until April 1970,” he said.
