The Jury Prize has been awarded to Ken Loach for The Angels’ Share. Ken Loach received his prize from Laura Morante and Patrick Bruel.

 

Ken Loach declared: “I’d like to thank the Festival and the Jury, who have been very kind ! Thank you for your welcome, which is always very warm at Cannes. I wish to say that Cannes shows us that the cinema is not just entertainment – but that it shows what we are. I’d also like us to express our solidarity with all those who are resisting austerity.”
