‘QUINZAINE’ AND ‘SEMAINE’ DISPUTE FOR ATTENTION
Two parallel selections dispute for attention every year in Cannes, with selections
as diversified and interesting as the competition. Many times the films in DIRECTOR’S
FORTNIGHT and the CRITICS’ WEEK will have a career. It is from their selections
that most of the times come the Caméra d’Or awards, granted to
