Poster shows director Julia Ducournau and actress Garance Marillier.
The poster for the 56th Cannes Critics’ Week has been revealed.
It features Raw director Julia Ducournau hugging star Garance Marillier during the film’s screening at the 2016 Critics’ Week. Alice Khol was the photographer.
French-Belgium production Raw, titled Grave in France, sees Marillier play a girl who turns to cannibalism after a bizarre initiation ritual.
