Thierry Frémaux and Alberto Barbera — the heads of the Cannes and Venice festivals — are packing their suitcases to travel to Los Angeles in January, where they will scout the year’s most recent films for the Cannes Film Festival.

The film features a star-studded cast including Isabelle Huppert, Vincent Cassel, Virginie Efira, Pierre Niney, Adam Bessa, and Catherine Deneuve, among others.

Farhadi has previously won the Best Screenplay Award, the Best Actor Award, and the Grand Prix at the festival.
