The 75th Cannes Film Festival wrapped up on Saturday after awarding many European films. It was Ruben Östlund’s second Palme d’Or after he received his first award in 2017 for ‘The Square’. This time he won it with ‘Triangle of Sadness’
"We were aiming to do a wild, entertaining movie where we had a content that we thought was important, where the audience should discuss afterwards. (...) I'm very very happy that the jury acknowledged that", says Swedish director Ruben Östlund, a surprise winner of the Palme d'Or at the 75th Cannes Film Festival, earning a place among the select group of directors who have won the festival's top prize twice.

The jury, chaired by Vincent Lindon, has unveiled its winners for the 2022 edition of the Cannes Film Festival. Swedish director Ruben Östlund received the Palme d'Or for the film "Triangle of Sadness", a funny and cruel prank on wealthy industrialists and influencers. Two films tied for the Cannes Grand Prix: "Close" by Belgian filmmaker Lukas Dhont and "Stars at Noon" by French director Claire Denis.
The movies have been watched, the critiques are written, and now it is up to the Cannes Film Festival Jury to decide who among the 21 films will win the coveted and prestigious Palme d'Or award this year.
Today France 24 speaks to a director who previously won the top honour, the Palme d’Or, for his film 'The Square'. Swedish filmmaker Ruben Oslund’s new dark comedy 'Triangle of Sadness' is a satire of the super rich which questions what it is to be a man in today’s world.With Eve Jackson he talks about the crisis of the privileged white male, why he likes awkward situations and why women and men should split the bill.
