France's prestigious Cannes International Film Festival 2026 is set to see a strong presence from India, with a mix of regional cinema, filmmakers, and actors expected to attend the global event from May 12 to May 23.

'Cinema is such a powerful medium. It is not just the emotional impact, but some of these films are so strong that your entire body cannot help but react.'

The event, sponsored by Gold House, will feature a program of 20 shorts from student and emerging filmmakers.
