Synopsis

An inspirational and educative true story, with guerrilla style filming that makes it more real. The fantasy is what inspires Delia Antal, an actor and the film-maker to document the magic of the Cannes Film Festival.
Delia talks honestly about the struggle of her journey as a new film-maker and the life changing events that occur at this important site of the film business. She shows us the ins and outs of the festival, the front lines and back-end action. We are also introduced to the hard work that takes place behind the scenes, beyond the glamorous Red Carpet.
