The prefecture of Alpes-Maritimes has issued a decree prohibiting any demonstration in Cannes, around the Croisette, during the film festival. A measure that did not prevent the CGT from announcing that it was going to "make its cinema".

This ban covers the duration of the 76th edition of the festival, from Tuesday to Sunday, May 28, and concerns a well-defined perimeter. The CGT has planned various actions as part of its opposition to the pension reform, behind the slogan: "The CGT makes its cinema in Cannes"
