THE GRAND PRIX OF CANNES FILM FESTIVAL FOR XAVIER DOLAN

Xavier Dolan won The Grand Prix in Cannes last Sunday for the movie "It's only the end of the world".

Canadian Director Xavier Dolan has once again been awarded this year, at the 69th annual Cannes Film Festival, with The Grand Prix for his movie 'It's only the end of the world'. In 2014, he already won the Jury Prize for the movie 'Mommy'.

During the Closing Ceremony, he gave a particularly emotional speech ending it with a famous quote by Anatole France: "I prefer the folly of enthusiasm to the indifference of wisdom".
