The winners of the 75th Cannes Film Festival have been announced. The Palme d’Or went to Triangle Of Sadness (dir. Ruben Östlund), which was screened during the closing ceremony on May 28.

Alexandru Belc was awarded the prize for Best director, in the Un Certain Regard competition for the film Metronom.

The Best Actor Award went to Song Kang-ho for his role in Broker, whereas the Best Actress Award was snatched by Zar Amir Ebrahimi for her role in Holy Spider.

The president of this year’s jury was French actor Vincent Lindon.
