OSCARS 2022. Titane triumphed at Bac Nord and The Event: the Palme d’Or 2021 will be France’s candidate for the Oscar for best foreign film.
[Mis à jour le 13 octobre 2021 à 9h39] Julia Ducournau’s film Titanium was chosen by the CNC to represent France at the Oscars 2022. The feature film, which won the Palme d’Or at the last Cannes film festival, will now have to be selected by the Academy of Oscars to appear in the “short-list” of the five films eligible for the title of Best foreign film. Last year, Deux, candidate of France, had not passed this crucial stage.
A horrific genre film, Titane caused a sensation during its presentation on the Croisette, and has gathered 300,000 spectators in French cinemas since its release on July 14, 2021. For those who missed it in theaters, it is released in DVD and Blu-Ray on November 16, 2021. Julia Ducournau’s feature film was preferred to The Event and Bac Nord, both shortlisted. Instead of being held in February, as is usually the case, the 94th Academy Awards will take place on March 27, 2022, still at Hollywood’s Dolby Theater. This lag is once again due to the pandemic.
