00:00Is it possible to win the Cannes Film Festival with a film that denounces the president of the
00:05The United States, and who denounces the war while it is in the middle of a war?
00:08Yes, indeed.
00:09Every day I make a video about the Cannes Film Festival, I'm waiting for Dailymotion to invite me to
00:13Cannes Film Festival and if you want to know if I'm going, subscribe.
00:15Yes, go ahead and subscribe.
00:16In 2004, Michael Moore presented Fahrenheit 911 at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:22The film arrives in Cannes in a context that is very explosive.
00:25The September 11 attacks are still very recent.
00:28The United States is engaged in the war in Iraq and George Bush is in the midst of his re-election campaign.
00:34Michael Moore presents a film that is overtly political.
00:37This is a film that directly attacks American power at a time when that power is still in place.
00:43And Cannes will give him the ultimate prize, the 2004 Palme d'Or.
00:47And above all, the Palme d'Or is rarely awarded to a documentary.
00:51But this Palme d'Or is not just an anti-Bush vote.
00:54The jury president that year, Quentin Tarantino, defended the idea that the jury had rewarded cinema
01:00of the film and not just its political message.
01:02Tell me what he knew about that in the comments and most importantly, subscribe.
