With three French films selected in competition this year (Landes, which was also represented by Marie Gillain, Jappeloup, and the minority French production Cha Cha Cha) as well as a string of prestigious premieres (Adore/Adoration), The Nun, and Camille Claudel 1915, French cinema was well represented at the Montreal World Film Festival. The Grand Prize of the Americas went to the Polish film Life Feels Good (Chce sie zyc) by Maciej Pieprzyca.
