Abstract :
[en] For the Cannes public, the search for cultural diversity has long been taken for granted –
where can the diversity of cinematographic creation, both in terms of origin and aesthetic
quality, better be expressed than at a major international film festival? However, something that is obvious in the context of a festival is not necessarily so in day-to-day commercial reality. The other obvious fact, in the commercial context, is that innovative films and those not supported by the big international distribution networks find it hard to reach their potential audience.
