Viola Davis champions visibility and female filmmakers at Cannes: Video
Oscar-winning actress and activist Viola Davis took center stage at the Cannes Film Festival as L'Oréal Paris marked the fifth anniversary of its Lights On Women’s Worth Award, which honours exceptional female filmmakers.
Serving as a juror for this year’s award, Davis highlighted the importance of elevating women's voices and stories in cinema.
“I’m not worried about women in the film industry,” Davis told AFP. “We’re used to adversity… and now we’re becoming the change we want to see.”
