The festival lasts until May 27, and the event has already resulted in many moments full of emotions. Harrison Ford couldn’t hide his emotion when the audience gave him a five-minute standing ovation after the screening of “Indiana Jones and the Artifact of Destiny”. The viewers reacted similarly to the return of Johnny Depp, who played in the non-competitive production of “The Mistress of the King”. There was also a little scandal. The media noticed a stormy quarrel between the director of the festival and a policeman, and there were even scuffles.
The film “Club Zero” shocked the audience in Cannes. People asked when it would end
Jessica Hausner’s “Club Zero” premiered at the 76th Cannes International Film Festival. Mia Wasikowska, known for her role as Alice in Wonderland in Tim Burton’s films, played the lead role in the production. The latest work by the Austrian director tells the story of a teacher from an elite school who creates very strong and at the same time dangerous bonds with her students. Her way of reaching out to her charges resembles the mechanisms of a sect.
The movie “Club Zero” deals with the subject of eating disorders and contains a scene that shocked viewers. The script included an extremely difficult to watch moment of vomiting, which made those present at the screening gasp nervously and couldn’t wait for the end. It’s about a scene where a schoolgirl (played by Ksenia Devriendt) vomited on a plate and then ate her own vomit. Her parents watched the situation.
The scene disgusted the audience at the Cannes screening. Jessica Hausner talks bluntly about eating disorders
As reported by People magazine, it was too much for viewers. Some gasped loudly, sighed, others began to laugh nervously. One of the people in the room asked, “When will it end?” Despite such extreme reactions from the audience, “Club Zero” was appreciated. Viewers gave the production a standing ovation for five minutes. The creators of the film made sure that any person particularly sensitive to the content of the film could opt out of the screening. A warning about scenes related to an unhealthy relationship with food appeared before the production’s presentation, while the end credits read that no actor had to lose weight to get a role in the film.
It is worth recalling that disgusting vomiting scenes do not stand in the way of winning prestigious awards. Last year, two Golden Palms were awarded to the film “In a Triangle”, in which Ruben Ostlund showed an epic scene of collective vomiting.
