• Every opening of the Cannes Festival comes with a mix of frenzy and anxiety.
• There are concerns about representation and diversity in the festival and within the film industry.
• The progress of the #MeToo movement in the French film industry has been slow.
• There are accusations of sexual assault within the sector.
• Despite certain advances, there are not enough movies directed by women in competition.

Conclusion: Even as the Cannes Festival celebrates cinema, it also reflects the current tensions and challenges within the film industry, from lack of representation to the fight against sexual harassment.
