From star-studded glamour to hard-hitting drama, Day 3 of the Cannes Film Festival delivers it all. On today's show with Eve Jackson, we dive into the spectacle of the red carpet – a global symbol of fame, fashion and prestige. But how did it become such a powerful icon? Stella Elgersma takes a closer look.

We also bring you the premiere of the first French film in competition, “Dossier 137” by Dominik Moll – a gripping drama inspired by a real-life police investigation, starring celebrated actress Léa Drucker. 

And as the war in Ukraine enters its third year, Cannes puts geopolitics in the spotlight. Jennifer Ben Brahim reports on how cinema is confronting conflict, with powerful documentaries and the latest film from Ukrainian director Sergei Loznitsa.

Plus, catch all the red carpet highlights and celebrity moments from what’s shaping up to be one of the most star-studded Cannes editions in years.
