Cannes Opening Night: Festival Workers Briefly Protest Red Carpet, Deadline Shut Down From Filming
This evening's opening night gala in Cannes was briefly interrupted when festival staffers staged a labor protest next to the red carpet. Around a dozen Cannes staffers, covertly stationed next to the red carpet, blew whistles and held red Sous Les Écrans La Dèche placards as the Cannes jury led by Juliette Binoche made their way into the opening night gala. More from Deadline Matt Rife To Star In Comedy 'The Escort' For 'Wedding Crashers' Director David Dobkin; Upgrade & UTA Launching For Cannes Market Mubi Deep Dive: Founder Efe Cakarel & Content Boss Jason Ropell Lift The Lid On Rapid Growth & Next What Does The Industry Think? Maya Hawke & Rhys Ifans Set For Aisling Walsh's Lucia Joyce Biopic As The Veterans Boards Sales - Cannes The protest was almost immediately shut off by armed police. We captured footage of the brief demonstration, which you can view below. However, Deadline's journalist was barred from filming the demonstration by a festival official. The official told us on the ground, 'Sometimes you're allowed to film but sometimes not.' We broke the news earlier today that Cannes staffers were planning protests at this evening's opening ceremony to raise awareness of their working conditions. The group of protestors is organized under the unofficial union Sous Les Écrans La Dèche, which includes 300 film festival workers from across France, including staff who work on the Cannes Official Selection, the festival's Marché du Film, and parallel sections of Directors' Fortnight and Critics' Week. The group's main objectives are the same as we reported ahead of last year's Cannes Film Festival, during which they executed similar small demonstrations. They want to be included in France's unique unemployment insurance program for entertainment workers and technicians. Known as Intermittence de Spectacle, the scheme supports entertainment workers on short-term contracts with an unemployment benefit when they are between jobs or projects. The payments are funded through taxes paid by employers. Due to quirks in the regulations, many workers at French film festivals have long been excluded from the unemployment benefit. Instead, they are hired and handed flat short-term contracts. The collective is campaigning to be included in the scheme, citing the inherent seasonal nature of the work. The Sous les Écrans la Dèche movement has some high-profile supporters. French filmmaker Justine Triet wore the group's bright red pin on her suit lapel as she walked the red carpet for Palme d'Or winner Anatomy of a Fall at Cannes in 2023. This year's Cannes Film Festival jury member Payal Kapadia was wearing the same pin as she debuted All We Imagine as Light on the Croisette in 2024. Cannes opens this evening with Leave One Day by first-time French filmmaker Amelie Bonnin. The festival runs until May 24.

Cannes Staffers Urged To Remain Politically Neutral In Pre-Fest Letter From Organizers; Will There Be A Protest From Them Tonight?
EXCLUSIVE: Cannes Film Festival organizers have urged all staffers to remain politically neutral while on the job in a series of guidelines sent out ahead of this evening's opening night gala. The instructions, which were sent to all staff members working on this year's event and have been reviewed by Deadline, list guidelines on social media use and dealing with the press alongside instructions on steering clear of political discussions. News of the updated guidelines come as we learn a selection of Cannes staffers aim to once again mount demonstrations during this year's event, including at tonight's opening ceremony, to raise awareness of their working conditions. More from Deadline Matt Rife To Star In Comedy 'The Escort' For 'Wedding Crashers' Director David Dobkin; Upgrade & UTA Launching For Cannes Market Mubi Deep Dive: Founder Efe Cakarel & Content Boss Jason Ropell Lift The Lid On Rapid Growth & Next What Does The Industry Think? Maya Hawke & Rhys Ifans Set For Aisling Walsh's Lucia Joyce Biopic As The Veterans Boards Sales - Cannes 'Maintain a certain political neutrality in your exchanges with festival-goers,' the instruction read in the pre-festival letter from organizers. We understand the specific note on politics is a new addition to advice traditionally shared with festival staffers. Multiple Cannes staffers we spoke with this morning said the updated staff protocols were indicative of what they described as the festival's beefed-up approach to political protests and demonstrations, particularly around its centerpiece events like this evening's opening ceremony. In a statement to Deadline, the public and privately-backed festival said: 'As in many organizations, team members are asked not to express political opinions when speaking on behalf of the Festival in a professional context. Outside of this framework, everyone is free to hold and express their own beliefs.' Last year, a small collection of staff working across the festival's competition strands did mount a series of modest demonstrations to raise awareness about their working conditions. A rooftop demonstration was held at last year's opening night gala. The group was organized under the unofficial union Sous Les Écrans La Dèche, which includes 300 film festival workers from across France, including staff who work on the Cannes Official Selection, the festival's Marché du Film, and parallel sections of Directors' Fortnight and Critics' Week. We understand the group is in discussion about how to replicate a similar demonstration at this evening's opening ceremony, as last-minute negotiations held this week about their working contracts with the French government and the Cannes Film Festival broke down. The Sous les Écrans la Dèche movement has some high-profile supporters. French filmmaker Justine Triet wore the group's bright red pin on her suit lapel as she walked the red carpet for Palme d'Or winner Anatomy Of A Fall at Cannes in 2023. 2025 Cannes Film Festival jury member Payal Kapadia was wearing the same pin as she debuted All We Imagine As Light on the Croisette in 2024. Cannes opens this evening with Leave One Day by first-time French filmmaker Amelie Bonnin. Juliette Binoche leads the competition jury. The festival runs until May 24.
