How Lyna Khoudri Captured Attention at the Cannes Film Festival
CANNES — French Algerian actress Lyna Khoudri is making her presence felt at the 79th Cannes Film Festival, promoting two projects while dazzling on the red carpet.
Khoudri attended a screening of her animated film “In Waves,” which opened the 65th Cannes Critics’ Week. She provides French voice work for the adaptation of AJ Dungo’s graphic novel, a love story between a skateboarder and a surfer tested by illness.
She also walked the red carpet for “Fatherland,” directed by Pawel Pawlikowski, which follows Nobel laureate Thomas Mann and his daughter Erika on a post‑WWII road trip across a shattered Germany.
Khoudri first rose to prominence in “Papicha,” winning best actress at Venice. She also starred in Wes Anderson’s “The French Dispatch.”
