Festival Palace, in the office of the film festival organizing committee.
Isabel Huppert's face was like still water as she coldly stared at the committee chairman Jacob across from her and said, "I heard you're proposing to have Ajani present the Palme d'Or? The film festival is about to start, what are you trying to do, launch a surprise attack?"
"You are the biggest female representative of French cinema…" said Jacob.
"You know very well what I think of her!" Huppert slammed the table and snapped, "Over my dead body!"
Not to mention the years of open rivalry and covert struggles, Ajani had actually caused real harm during the shooting of the Bronte Sisters, having once stabbed her in the head for real!
Everyone in the French film circle knew that they were mortal enemies who couldn't coexist.
Huppert loudly said, "If Ajani is a guest, I will hold a press conference right now and announce my resignation as president of the jury."
