Day 12.
The city of Cannes is getting that “after the party’s over” feeling. The Marché is now closed, and the festival is winding up, but I like to stay until the end. One of my favorite events occurs on the second Saturday of the festival and is well worth the stay, so at 11 a.m., I go to the official screening of the courts métrages en Compétition.
During the festival you can see the short films in the main competition at any time in the Short Film Corner’s screening booths, but viewing the screening of these films together is a rewarding experience. There are nine films, all between 11 and 15 minutes in length: “Badpakje 46” directed by Wannes Destoop (Belgium); “Soy tan feliz” directed by Vladimir Durán (Colombia); “Bear” directed by Nash Edgerton (Australia); “Kjøttsår” directed by Lisa Marie Gamlem (Norway...

Jane Campion, director of Bright Star and Portrait of a Lady, and Brit auteur Lynne Ramsay, whose We Need To Talk About Kevin is In Competition this year, both first appeared at Cannes in this short film sidebar, so it's worth keeping an eye on for emerging talent.

Michel Gondry, jury president, will award the Short Film Palme d’Or at the closing ceremony May 22.
