Chaired by Spanish director, screenwriter and producer Rodrigo Sorogoyen, the jury includes Rwandan actress Eliane Umuhire, French producer Sylvie Pialat, Belgian cinematographer Virginie Surdej, and Canadian journalist and film critic Ben Croll.
Together, they will be responsible for awarding the Grand Prix de la Semaine de la Critique to the best feature film, the Prix French Touch du Jury, the Prix Fondation Louis Roederer de la Révélation to the best actress, and the Prix Découverte Leitz Ciné to the best short film.
