"A Hidden Life" by Terrence Malick (USA, Germany 2019) has won the Prize of the Ecumenical Jury in Cannes. The fact-based film tells of the resistance of an Austrian peasant against the National Socialists during World War II. The Golden Palm went for the first time to a film from South Korea: "Gisaengchung" (Parasite) by Bong Joon-Ho. The Prize of the International Association of Film Critics (Fipresci), which is traditionally awarded together with the Prize of the Ecumenical Jury, was awarded to "It Must Be Heaven" by the Arab-Israeli director Elia Suleiman. The film was produced in France.
