Cannes Film Festival takes place from May 12th to 23rd and is arguably the biggest event of its kind in the world, attracting film fans and movie stars alike.
Famous for the abundance of film stars wandering along the beach and fractious confrontations at competitive screenings, the festival also has a history of upholding artistic standards within an industry increasingly dominated by Hollywood.
Anyone likely to head to France for the event could benefit from
travel insurance to protect them while overseas.
Cannes Film Festival was originally intended as a wartime response to the Venice Film Festival, which was seen as being run by fascist organisations, according to whatsonwhen.
In addition to the main event, the festival has a competitive short film competition that features high-quality movies deemed unsuitable for the main event.
