"A very hardworking and studious one: I’m on my sixth film! For me being part of this jury is a gift fallen from heaven. When I was offered the opportunity to be one of the eight jury members of this 71st edition, I first thought it was a joke. I immediately accepted of course. Even today I still don’t understand why I was chosen! It’s a great honour and a great sign of respect since the Palme d’or is an important award in the life of a film and a director. I’m taking my role very seriously."
