78th Festival de Cannes Poster Unveiled

 

The Cannes Film Festival unveiled its official poster for the 78th edition, paying homage to Claude Lelouch’s 1966 Palme d’Or-winning film, A Man and a Woman. Designed by the creative studio Hartland Villa, the poster features a poignant embrace between the film's stars, Anouk Aimée and Jean-Louis Trintignant, encapsulating the timeless romance that captivated audiences nearly six decades ago.

This year’s poster continues Cannes’ tradition of honoring cinematic milestones, following previous tributes to auteurs like Akira Kurosawa and Peter Weir. By spotlighting A Man and a Woman, the festival not only celebrates a defining moment in French cinema but also underscores its enduring commitment to films that explore human connection and emotional depth.​

The 78th Cannes Film Festival is scheduled to run from May 13 to 24, 2025, with French actress Juliette Binoche presiding over the main competition jury. The festival will open with the film Bye Bye, and the Honorary Palme d'Or will be awarded to Robert De Niro during the opening ceremony .​

The official poster is available for purchase through the Festival de Cannes online boutique.
