Jacqueline Barbaccia (*1948) spent her entire professional career in French air transport, but she has always been interested in cinema. Back in high school, she was a member of a film club run by a priest and a philosophy teacher. “Cinema can make you laugh or cry, but more often than not, it makes you think about social issues.”
Since 2012, she has been involved as an INTERFILM member in the organization of  the Ecumenical Jury in Cannes. She was also a juror for Pro-Fil, the Protestant film organisation in France, at the Montauroux festival.

Following the promising nominations, the Oscar ceremony felt like a disappointment. For the first time, the Academy had nominated international films such as “Sentimental Value” from Norway and “Secret Agent” from Brazil in the Best Picture category. Yet in the end, it was American productions that walked away with all the awards.
"Olmo" by Mexican writer and director Fernando Eimbcke wins the Youth Film Award of the Swedish Church and INTERFILM at the 43rd Children and Youth Film Festival in Malmö 2026.
