Some of the winners of the prestigious Ghana Movie Awards would be in France next month for this year\u2019s edition of world-acclaimed Cannes International Film Festival.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s Cannes Film Festival is the 64th edition and it would be held from May 11 to May 22 in France. The festival was created on the initiative of Jean Zay, Minister for Education and Fine Arts, who was keen to establish an international cultural event in France to rival the Venice Film Festival.<\/p>\n

The first edition of the festival was originally set to be held in Cannes in 1939 under the presidency of Louis Lumi\u00e8re. However, it was not until over a year after the war ended that it finally took place on 20 September 1946. It was subsequently held every September- except in 1948 and 1950- and then every May from 1952 onwards. Over the years, the festival has been tagged one of the celebrated film festivals.<\/p>\n

As usual, it is anticipated to attract a lot of movie stakeholders from across the world. A couple of weeks ago, Canale France International (CFI), one of the giant media outfits in France, was in Ghana to do a documentary on some of the winners and Ghana\u2019s movie industry for the film festival.<\/p>\n

A lot of world movies, as well as some selected Ghanaian movies, are expected to be screened at the festival.<\/p>\n

The Ghana Movie Awards, organized by GP Limited, is aimed at honouring excellence in Ghana movie industry and contributing to the growth of the industry. The presence of its award winners at the Cannes Film Festival is definitely a plus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
