In celebration of its 70th anniversary, the Festival de Cannes launches its Photographer's Award.

The Festival decided to pay tribute to the tireless work embarked upon day after day by the press photographers who contribute to the iconic event that is the Festival de Cannes. Every day, a jury comprised of Pierre Lescure (Festival de Cannes President), Florence Leroy (Sud Radio journalist), Guillemette Odicino (Télérama journalist) and Laurent Weil (Canal + journalist) select the three most striking photographs of the day.
 

The top three photos of the day are uploaded to the festival's website and showcased at the Terrasse des Journalistes, Palais des Festivals – Level 4.

On 28 May, the best photographs from the 70th edition of the festival will be awarded prizes.
