“Cinema still exists, it never left us,” declare Thierry Frémaux, Bertrand Tavernier in open letter
Cannes delegate general and Lumière Institute chief Frémaux evokes need for “a fighting spirit”.
Cannes Film Festival delegate general Thierry Frémaux, who is also director of the Lumière Institute in Lyon, and Bertrand Tavernier, the institute’s long-time president, have published an open letter on the future of cinema.
Coming in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, and to mark the reopening of the institute’s onsite theatre, the pair’s letter heralded green shoots of recovery for France’s distribution and exhibition sector as the French population returns to work and school after the long summer break, for the traditional September rentrée.
