Ecumenical Jury Cannes 2007, with Fatih Akin (middle)
In the festival's 60th anniversary, the Golden Palm was awarded to a Romanian film for the first time: 4 Months, 3 Weeks, and 3 Days by Cristian Mungiu. The Ecumenical Jury choose Fatih Akin's Edge of Heaven (Auf der anderen Seite) as its winner.
By all counts, the 60th Festival de Cannes (16-27 May 2007) will go down as one of the best in its distinguished history as the queen of international film festivals. Festival report by Ron Holloway
