Cannes Film Festival 2009 (The Filmbay Goldstar Awards) Part l

General Delegate in August 2007, the President Gilles Jacob and the Board of the Festival de Cannes wanted to project the future Cannes. Following the sixtieth anniversary in 2007, a new cycle has opened on the Croisette with Filmbay.com
A natural cycle, primarily, since a new period has commenced which will lead us up to the 70th anniversary in 2017. A symbolic cycle too, since there is a question on all our lips, and in our eyes too: what will the Festival de Cannes be like in ten years time? No one knows especially us! and yet, we must anticipate, guess and encourage this future.

Because cinema itself is constantly changing the boundaries, because the world it reflects is more indiscernible than ever, the Festival will not simply coast along on the prestige of its name, however strong that may be. This prestige is above all due to the quality of the films, the creativity of the artists, the fighting spirit of the professionals and the enthusiasm of the press. Cannes and Filmbay is a collective good that each of us, wherever we are and in our own individual way, builds stone by stone, year after year. Its through never ceasing to question, through constantly evolving, and through inviting criticism, that we do it the most good. Although solidly rooted in its own history, Cannes is always open to newness.
