The opening night fil will be Bande de fille (Girlhood) by Céline Sciamma. It is her third film after similarly-themed Naissance des Pieuvres (Water Lilies) and Tomboy which also explored adolescence and sexuality.
The closing night film will be Pride by British filmmaker Matthew Warchus. It is a gay-politics comedy starring Bill Nighy, Imelda Staunton, Dominic West and Paddy Considine.
Canada is represented by two Quebec films. Tu Dors Nicole by Stéphane Lafleur is the latest film from micro_scope Productions, makers of acclaimed films such as Philippe Falardeau's Monsieur Lazhar, and Denis Villeneuve's Incendies and Enemy. Montreal-based Marie-Josée Saint-Pierre will present her animated documentary Jutra about the groundbreaking Quebec director in the short film section.
The special screenings are a 4K restoration of the horror-film classic The Texas Chainsaw Massacre by Tobe Hooper and Li’l Quinquin by Bruno Dumont.
The 46th Quinzaine des Réalisateurs runs from May 15–25. The 67th annual Festival de Cannes will take place from May 14-25.
