Dame Donna Langley, Julianne Moore, Cate Blanchett, Coco Francini & Dr Stacy L. Smith, Zoé Saldaña, Iris Knobloch, Céline Sallette & Charlotte Le Bon, Judith Godrèche, and Yseult: this year’s series of Women In Motion Talks included insightful commentary from leading actresses, directors, top cinema and entertainment executives & producers, inclusion researchers and authors, and singers-songwriters.

On May 19th, on the Place de la Castre, Dame Donna Langley, Chairman, NBCUniversal Studio Group and Chief Content Officer, received the 2024 Women In Motion Award from François-Henri Pinault, Chairman and CEO of Kering, Iris Knobloch, President of the Festival de Cannes, and Thierry Frémaux, General Delegate of the Festival de Cannes. The Young Talent Award was presented to Malaysian director Amanda Nell Eu.

About Women In Motion
Kering's commitment to women is at the heart of the Group's priorities and extends, through Women In Motion, to the field of arts and culture, where gender inequalities are still glaring, even though creation is one of the most powerful vectors for change.
In 2015, Kering launched Women In Motion at the Festival de Cannes with the ambition of highlighting women in cinema, both in front of and behind the camera. The program has since expanded in a major way to photography, but also to art, design, choreography, and music. Through its Awards, the program recognizes inspirational figures and emerging female talent, while its Talks and Podcasts provide an opportunity for leading personalities to share their views on the representation of women in their profession.
Since it was created, Women In Motion has become a platform of choice that contributes to changing mind sets and thinking on the place of women - and the recognition they receive - in the arts and culture.
