And the last additions to the Cannes programme is the ever-so-popular Cannes Classics – which promises plenty of restored (mostly 4k) national film treasures plus a good helping of docu items pertaining to cinema with Julie Bertuccelli taking a closer look at Jane Campion, Cinema Woman and Naomi Kawase’s docu Official Film of the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 Side A.
