The film ‘Anatomie d’Une Chute’ explores the case of a woman suspected of murdering her husband – and the only suspect in the crime is her son, who is blind. Justine Triet is the third woman to win the Palme d’Or at Cannes Film Festival. The first female champion was Jane Campion, from 1993, who won for ‘The Piano’. Already in 2021, Julia Ducournau, for ‘Titane’, took the honor.
