Gilles Jacob

For over thirty years, Gilles Jacob has been the soul of the biggest film festival in the world - the Cannes Festival - of which he was elected President in 2000. As witness and champion of the film industry, Jacob describes in Citizen Cannes his journey from that of a Jewish boy saved by a Catholic seminary during World War II, later becoming an entrepreneur and a film critic, and finally an accomplished man who in 1978 was appointed general delegate of the biggest vanity fair in the world.
