>> The stars and creatives have signed a letter about the killing of the Palestinian protagonist of a #Cannes-premiering documentary [Fatma Hassona]: “We are ashamed of such passivity” - they wrote regarding the silence of the industry.

>> The signatories - which include Pedro Almodóvar, Ruben Östlund, Guy Pierce, Ralph Fiennes, Melissa Barrera, Yórgos Lánthimos, Susan Sarandon, Alfonso Cuarón and David Cronenberg – denounce genocide in Gaza: "We cannot remain silent while genocide is taking place in Gaza," read the letter initiated by several pro-Palestinian activist groups and published in French newspaper Libération and US magazine Variety.
