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.

Current issues

Peter Paul Huth comments favourably on the 2026 Venice Film Festival awards ceremony, highlighting in particular the Golden Lion winner, “Kvinde Ukendt” (Unknown Woman) by May el-Toukhy, and “Un bon petit soldat” by Stéphane Brizé, which won the award for Best Screenplay and the INTERFILM Jury Prize.
Alex Gibney’s documentary *Musk* portrays a ‘hero of capitalism’, whilst Ilya Khrzhanovsky’s *DAU* evokes the victims of Stalinism.
