The Deauville American Film Festival will be held again this year in Normandy. Dates of the event, expected stars, and films in competition, that’s all we know about this highly anticipated 2022 edition.
It’s not just the Cannes Film Festival for film and television professionals. There is the Venice Film Festival, La Berlina, Sundance, the Toronto International Film Festival, the Monte Carlo Festival, or the Deauville American Film Festival. 2022 will mark the 48th edition of the event. Like every year, movie stars from all over the world, directors, producers, costume designers, but also anonymous moviegoers are expected on the Normandy coast for several days.
On the program of the 48th Deauville American Film Festival: screenings of feature films, major interviews, dazzling red carpets, but also ceremonies and prestigious award ceremonies. The competition will be opened by the film dedicated to the fight for women’s rights, Call Jane. The festival will close with the film Don’t Worry Darling, by Olivia Wilde.
