Title
A Review of Representation in the Palme D'Or Competition
Description
The images in this record form a collection from the analysis of a project on representation in the Palme D'Or competition.
The exhibit analyses biographic data pertaining to three groups of people relevant to films in the Festival de Cannes’ Palme d’Or competition, the directors, cast leads, and character leads. The data was collected with the intent to examine representation of several facets of identity among each of the three groups who are most responsible for the portrayal of the stories told by the films in the competition. For each of these groups, I have compiled data on their gender, race, sexual orientation, and disability status to demonstrate how these different facets of identity are represented by each film, see how they intersect, and explore their possible significance.
