Ever thought the Cannes Film Festival is shrouded in the legacy of Harvey Weinstein and the abuses he committed at the Cannes film festival? Ever believe that attending Cannes was not only beyond your reach as an actor but fruitless as a woman? Attended Cannes and felt objectified and lost? Wondered how directors, producers, and agents seemed so busy in pre-booked daytime meetings while at the festival.

Here’s your chance to learn how it’s possible to not only get into Cannes 2025 as an actor or filmmaker but thrive while there! You can book 1:1 meetings with the buyers of your talent and create a strategy that actually gets you results.

Join me in this 30-minute talk about the success stories of actors who have knocked their film career out of the park! Their wins include signing with their newest agents six days after the festival, locking down development agreements for their scripts, connecting with financiers from Ireland and Spain, and meeting 1:1 with UK and American directors through pre-booked meetings.

In this talk, I will pull away the curtain on one of the most prestigious festivals in the world and how actresses and actors alike are now leading the way towards empowerment, after a legacy of sexist infringements which brought the festival to its knees.
