‘Falcon Lake’ Trailer: Charlotte Le Bon’s Haunting Debut Film Arrives In June

Senegalese and French director Ramata-Toulaye Sy is only the second Black woman to make it into Competition in Cannes. Her debut feature, Banel & Adama, which had its debut Saturday, follows in the footsteps of Mati Diop’s 2019 Atlantics.

At first sight, Sy’s film seems a bit of an outlier in a lineup sprinkled with veterans, and the extra scrutiny that comes with a Competition slot may well work against it. But it’s entirely possible that it might strike a chord with the jury, notably Rungano Nyoni, whose debut I Am Not a Witch took a similarly subversive and sophisticated approach to themes of African tradition and folklore.

The Prince and Princess of Wales' three children played incredibly important roles throughout Coronation weekend, including Prince George's position as a Page of Honour to his grandfather King Charles. But while the ancient ceremony went off without a hitch, with the excitement over, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have gone back to school. And while their starring roles on the day mean the Royal trio have a bigger public profile than ever, the careful oversight of their mother, Kate, means this is unlikely to affect their day to day lives.
