The mission of the Critics' Week is to discover and support emerging talents, programming only first and second works at the Cannes Film Festival. In this way, it has opened the doors to directors of the height of Bernardo Bertolucci, Alejandro González Iñárritu, Wong Kar Wai, Ken Loach, Barbet Schroeder and Guillermo del Toro, among many others.
