Accusations of sexual assaults emerge in the film industry ahead of the Cannes Festival opening.
Dominique Boutonnat, the head of National Centre for Cinema and the Moving Image, is facing a trial for sexual assault but remains in position.
The film industry, which relies on CNC for funding, loses trust in Boutonnat.
The #MeToo movement, which started in American cinema in 2017, seems to be catching up to the French industry.
Conclusion: There's a need to address the issue of sexual assaults in the French film industry. Resistance to this may erode trust and credibility in important institutions within the industry.
