Cannes 2017: Directors’ Fortnight Lineup Is 37% Women-Directed

“I Am Not a Witch”

Cannes has announced its 2017 Director’s Fortnight lineup, and seven of 19 films screening are helmed by women, amounting to 37 percent of the slate. This is a dramatic improvement from last year, when just 22 percent of the program was women-directed. We’re thrilled to see one of Cannes’ most high-profile sections approaching the 40 percent benchmark this year. This is a solid number for a fest in general, but especially by Cannes’ standards. Bear in mind that just 15 percent of the films in Cannes’ 2017 main competition lineup — the titles duking it for the fest’s most prestigious honor, the Palme d’Or — are directed by women.

French helmer Claire Denis ’ “Un Beau Soleil Intérieur” has been selected as Opening Night Film. The Juliet Binoche-starrer is a loose adaptation of “A Lover’s Discourse: Fragments,” a 1978 book by influential French literary theorist Roland Barthe. ScreenDaily describes the text as “a collection of musings about what it means to be a lover.” Denis previously screened “Chocolat ” and “Bastards” at Cannes. “What touched us is that [‘Un Beau Soleil Intérieur’] marks a radical change in tone for Claire Denis ,” commented Artistic Director Edouard Waintrop. “We like it when filmmakers try something new.”

Chinese-American director Chloé Zhao is set to return to the fest just two years after screening her first feature, “Songs My Brother Taught Me,” in the Directors’ Fortnight. The Indie Spirit Award nominee will be debuting “The Rider ,” a portrait of a cowboy reeling in the aftermath of a near fatal rodeo accident.

While the lineup features familiar names, it also includes some relative newcomers, including British-Zambian director Rungano Nyoni. who’s set to premiere her feature debut “I Am Not a Witch.” Set in present-day Africa, the satire centers on a nine-year-old girl accused of witchcraft.

Cannes runs from May 17–28. Check out all of the women-directed films screening in the Directors’ Fortnight below. List adapted from ScreenDaily.

“La Defensa Del Dragón,” Natalia Santa

“Just To Be Sure (Ôtez-moi D’Un Doute),” Carine Tardieu

Cannes 2017: Women-Directed Films We’re Tracking for This Year’s Festival

While many other high-profile festivals have made strides towards closing the gender gap in their programming, Cannes is infamous for lagging behind the times. Last year, just three of 21 films competing for the Palme d’Or were women-directed, and in 2015, two of 17 films featured in the Main Competition were helmed by women.

Undoubtedly one of the world’s most prestigious and well-known film festivals, Cannes has a well-documented woman problem. Female filmmakers have historically been underrepresented at the event, and yet, we continue to hope for change. We’ve assembled 15 films directed and co-directed by women that we’re hoping to see on the program. This list is by no means exhaustive — there are dozens of other female-helmed titles from around the world that stand a shot. These are just some of the titles to catch our eyes, and that have a realistic chance of being completed in time to be unveiled at the fest, which runs from May 17–28.

Cannes will announce its 2017 lineup April 13.

Two of Sofia Coppola ’s previous films, “Marie Antoinette ” and “The Bling Ring ,” have screened at the fest, she served as a juror in 2014, and her newest film, “The Beguiled ,” promises to bring big stars to Cannes’ red carpet: Nicole Kidman. Kirsten Dunst. Elle Fanning. and Colin Farrell. Set during the Civil War, the film centers on a Confederate girls’ boarding school that is thrown into chaos after taking in an injured Union soldier (Farrell) to convalesce.

Considered one of Latin America’s most successful female directors, Lucrecia Martel has a highly anticipated epic on the way. Set in the 17th century, “Zama ” tells the story of a Spanish officer in Asunción, Paraguay who awaits his transfer to Buenos Aires. Two of Martel’s previous films have screened in Competition — 2004’s “The Holy Girl ” and 2008’s “The Headless Woman ” — and she served as a juror in 2006.

Urszula Antoniak ’s new drama tackles a hot topic: Emigration. The film follows a Berlin-based Polish lawyer who receives an unexpected visit from his father. The plot is giving us “Toni Erdmann ” vibes, and let’s not forget that Maren Ade ’s Oscar-nominated dark comedy made its world premiere at Cannes. Antoniak’s 2011 drama “Code Blue ” screened in Cannes’ Directors’ Fortnight sidebar, and she won the Golden Leopard at the 2009 Locarno Film Festival for “Nothing Personal .”

Clio Barnard is on a hot streak. She followed up her acclaimed experimental doc “The Arbor ” with another critical darling, “The Selfish Giant .” The narrative feature adaptation of the Oscar Wilde story debuted at Cannes 2013 in the Directors’ Fortnight program. Her latest offering, “Dark River ,” is led by rising star Ruth Wilson (“The Affair ”), who plays a woman returning home for the first time in 15 years to take over the family farm.

“Cobain ,” Nanouk Leopold ’s fifth feature, centers on a 15-year-old boy who struggles to help his pregnant, self-destructive mother get her act together. Leopold’s “Guernsey ” screened in the 2015 Directors’ Fortnight program, and her two latest films, “The Brownian Movement ” and “It’s All So Quiet,” both made big splashes at the Berlinale.

While Melanie Laurent is best known in North America as an actress in films such as “Now You See Me ,” “Beginners,” and “Inglourious Basterds ,” she’s also an accomplished writer-director with multiple feature credits. Her second feature, “Breathe,” screened in the 2014 Critics’ Week Section at Cannes, and she hosted the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2011 edition of the fest. Galveston marks Laurent’s English-language debut, and centers on a hitman (Ben Foster. “Hell or High Water ”) diagnosed with lung cancer at 40. Elle Fanning and Lili Reinhart (“Riverdale ”) co-star.

A seasoned Cannes vet, Naomi Kawase has previously screened six films at the fest: “Suzaku,” “Shara,” “The Mourning Forest, “ “Hanezu,” “Still the Water,” and “Sweet Bean .” “Suzaku” won the Camera d’Or, “The Mourning Forest” took home the Grand Jury Prize, and Kawase herself was honored with the Carrosse d’Or in 2009. Her latest project, “Radiance,” is about Misako, a film voiceover writer, and her friendship with Masaya, an older photographer who is slowly going blind.

“Kings ” marks Deniz Gamze Ergüven ’s follow-up to “Mustang ,” her Oscar-nominated feature debut about repressed sisters living in a small Turkish town. Her new drama is set against the backdrop of the 1992 Los Angeles race riots and stars Halle Berry. “Mustang ” made its world premiere in the Directors’ Fortnight in 2015, where it won the Europa Cinemas Label Award.

Anne Fontaine ’s latest, “Marvin ,” follows a gay man who fled his hometown and family after being shunned by them, an experience that inspired his smash-hit autobiographical play. Isabelle Huppert co-stars in the drama. Fontaine’s films regularly screen at top international film festivals including Locarno and Venice, and her comedy “Augustin ” screened in Cannes’ Un Certain Regard program back in 1995.

Set in 1959 in a small English town, Isabel Coixet ’s “The Bookshop ” follows a woman who opens a bookshop despite opposition from conservative locals. The prolific filmmaker debuted “Map of the Sounds of Tokyo ,” a thriller about a contract killer, at Cannes back in 2009.

The third Elle Fanning -starrer on our list. In Haifaa al-Mansour ’s follow-up to her award-winning debut, “Wadjada,” the “20th Century Women” actress plays “Frankenstein ” author Mary Shelley. The biopic centers on 17-year-old Shelley’s tumultuous relationship with the married poet Percey Shelley and the work of writing her enduring masterpiece. Shelley was just 21 when “Frankenstein ” was published.

If you loved “Prevenge ,” Alice Lowe ’s deliciously unconventional portrayal of pregnancy, you’ll want to keep an eye on “Good Manners ,” another horror-inspired birth story. Co-directed by Juliana Rojas. the film follows another woman’s mysterious pregnancy. This one eventually gives birth to a violent werewolf. Rojas previously screened a short film at Cannes 2012, “Doppelgänger.”

“I Am Not a Witch”

Set in present-day Africa, Rungano Nyoni ’s “I Am Not a Witch” centers on a nine-year-old girl accused of being a witch. The satire marks Nyoni’s feature debut. In 2012, she received a BAFTA nomination for Best Short Film for “Mwansa the Great ,” the story of a boy who accidentally breaks his sister’s mud doll.

“Demain Et Tous Les Autres Jours” — Directed by Noemie Lvovsky

Noemie Lvovsky’s follow-up to “Redoubled” — which won the Directors’ Fortnight prize at Cannes in 2012 — follows Mathilde as she cares for her mother, who is struggling with dementia. Isolated and lonely, Mathilde finds happiness again whens she befriends her mother’s talking bird. Lvovsky also snagged Cannes’ France Culture Award in 2000 for her film “Life Doesn’t Scare Me.”

The first film from Oscar-winning actress Alicia Vikander ’s Vikarious Productions. “Euphoria ” marks Lisa Langseth ’s English-language directorial debut and her third collaboration with Vikander. The two previously worked together on Langseth’s “Pure” and “Hotel.” “Euphoria ” is a drama about two sisters (Vikander and Eva Green) struggling to get along as they travel across Europe.
