Nespresso Grand Prize Jury
Bertrand Bonello
France
Bertrand Bonello is the creator of surprisingly detailed and comprehensive work, which includes five feature films. He returns to La Semaine de la Critique after having presented The Pornographer in 2001 and winning the FIPRESCI Prize. He confirms his inimitable style with Tiresia which was in Competition at the 2003 Cannes Film Festival, then again with On War at the 2008 Directors’ Fortnight. With House of Tolerance in Competition at the 2011 Cannes Film Festival, he presented the international audience with one of the most beautiful films ever about the woman’s body.
