It is director Jérôme Salle ( Anthony Zimmer , Largo Winch) who has the honour of closing this 66th edition of the Cannes Film Festival with his film ZULU.
Projected out of competition, just after the announcement of an expected list, released with elegance from the mouth of our president Steven Spielberg, the film plunges us into the violent atmosphere of the old demons of apartheid. In Cape Town, two criminal cops – Forest Whitaker and Orlando Bloom – face the appearance of a drug that triggers morbid impulses. A first murder – a white girl – puts them on the track of a little drug dealer. The investigation will plunge the two policemen back into the dark hours of South Africa and the delirious plans of the Afrikaaner extremists.
The screening is followed by an evening organised in partnership with Pathé at the Chivas club, in the presence of the entire film team. I finished the evening on the Magnum Beach where the party of the golden plama was held with all the team of « The life of Adele » Hey!
Thanks again Bravo to Alizée, Marion and Frédérick Henry for this fabulous fortnight. (photo: Orlando Bloom and Forest Whitaker.) Thanks to Adèle LA agency for the photos.
