Acclaimed South Korean director Park Chan-wook will lead the jury at the 79th Cannes Film Festival, taking place from May 12-23 in the iconic French Riviera city.
Park Chan-wook’s relationship with Cannes began in 2004 with “Oldboy,” which won the Grand Prix. His subsequent films, “Thirst” (Jury Prize, 2009) and “Decision to Leave” (Best Director, 2022), have solidified his status as a Cannes favorite.
