The 77th Cannes Film Festival draws to a close Saturday with the presentation of its top award, the Palme d'Or, along with an honorary tribute for George Lucas.
The closing ceremony is set to begin at 6:45 p.m. local time, 12:45 p.m. U.S. Eastern time. It will be streamed live on Brut internationally and air on France 2 within France.
Any of the 22 films that premiered in competition at Cannes are eligible for the Palme d'Or and other prizes, like the Grand Prix, best actress and best actor. Deciding them all will be the nine-person jury presided over, this year, by Greta Gerwig.
The jury's deliberations take place in secret, so anything could potentially win. But a handful of films are seen as the most likely contenders, among them Payal Kapadia’s “All We Imagine As Light," Mohammad Rasoulof's “The Seed of the Sacred Fig” and Sean Baker's “Anora.”
