Queen at Sea - ism Alzheimer Nederland
Special preview screening of the drama Queen at Sea starring Juliette Binoche and Tom Courtenay, organised in partnership with Alzheimer Netherlands.
Juliette Binoche is a French actress who rose to international prominence with films such as Les Amants du Pont-Neuf and The English Patient, for which she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. She is the only woman to have won the best actress prize at all three major European film festivals - Cannes, Venice and Berlin - and her work extends beyond acting into dance, painting and, since 2025, documentary filmmaking. Since May 2024 she has served as president of the European Film Academy.
Binoche ontving de Crystal Globe voor haar bijdrage aan de wereldcinema op het 60e Karlovy Vary International Film Festival en presenteerde er haar regiedebuut In-I in Motion.
Haar film Queen at Sea (regie Lance Hammer) ging in wereldpremière in de hoofdcompetitie van de Berlinale en won de Silver Bear Jury Prize.
Haar documentairedebuut In-I in Motion, over haar samenwerking met choreograaf Akram Khan, werd vertoond op de Viennale 2025.
Binoche was juryvoorzitter van het 78e Filmfestival van Cannes - precies veertig jaar na haar eerste optreden op La Croisette.
Ze werd unaniem verkozen tot voorzitter van de European Film Academy, als opvolgster van de Poolse filmmaker Agnieszka Holland.
