Mike Leigh (born 1943) is a British filmmaker who achieved his first public success in 1993 with the film "Naked", rewarded twice at Cannes. Three years later, in 1996, he presents "Secrets & Lies" which wins the main competition, the Palme d'Or. In 2004, in Venice, Italy, he won the Golden Lion for the film "Vera Drake".

Mike Leigh's cinema tends to tell, in a fun and subtle way, the story of simple people with complicated problems. Leigh is considered, along with Ken Loach, one of the best European filmmakers of the 90s.

The first edition of the Cannes Festival took place in 1946. It is the most famous film festival in the world. It takes place every year in May in Cannes, on the French Riviera.

A very visual and original autograph.
