Cannes [France]May 29 (ANI): The 75th Cannes Film Festival on Saturday gave away the Palme d’Or for best film to Swedish filmmaker Ruben Ostlund’s “Triangle of Sadness”, a broad, fierce satire on modern capitalism.
This will be Österlund’s second Palm win after “The Square” 2017.
The film revolves around models, millionaires and their various trophy partners – and abandons them in deep water, forcing the survivors to reconstruct a society on deserted islands where money has no power.
Korean star Song Kang-ho won the Best Actor award for her performance in “Broker” by Kore-Eda Hirokazu, just two years after Parasite, where Song also starred.
Song thanked everyone “who loves Korean film.” “Broker” is about a woman who leaves an unwanted child in a “baby box” for adoption.
Meanwhile, Tsar Amir-Ebrahimi won the Best Actress award for his role in Ali Abbasi’s “Holy Spider” as an Iranian journalist in the hunt for a serial killer who murders prostitutes in the holy city of Mashhad.
“I have come a long way to stand on this stage tonight. It was not an easy story,” said Ebrahimi.
