By José Alberto Hermosillo

2021 has been a challenging year for the film industry as Cannes unveils its international line-up after bypass last term due to the pandemic. 

However, the festival moves forward - closing gender parity with more women directors in the selected films. In addition, the Mediterranean yearly event has more diversity and inclusion, with more movies from countries that traditionally don't have representation - plus the festival's favorite directors.
