Actress Judith Godrèche received a standing ovation at the 2024 César Awards on Friday as she spoke out against sexual violence in the French film industry. Meanwhile, Cannes Palme d'Or winner Anatomy of a Fall dominated the event with six trophies, including best film, giving it new momentum ahead of the Oscars, in which it has five nominations.
Godrèche, who has become a leading figure in France's #MeToo movement, denounced the "level of impunity, denial and privilege" in the industry.
