Critics' Week (French: Semaine de la critique), until 2008 called International Critics' Week (Semaine internationale de la critique), is a parallel section to the Cannes Film Festival organized by the French Syndicate of Cinema Critics. It was created in 1962 after the French Syndicate of Cinema Critics's successful campaign for Shirley Clarke's The Connection to be screened at the 1961 Cannes Film Festival.[1] It is the oldest non-official Cannes sidebar.[2][3]

Critics' Week's objective is to discover and support new talents, showcasing first and second feature films by directors worldwide. Bernardo Bertolucci, Philip Kaufman, Ken Loach, Tony Scott, Agnieszka Holland, Leos Carax, Wong Kar-wai, Guillermo del Toro, Jacques Audiard, Arnaud Desplechin, Gaspar Noé, François Ozon, Andrea Arnold, Alejandro González Iñárritu, Julia Ducournau, Justine Triet, all began at Critics' Week.

Critics' Week presents a selective program of seven feature films and ten short films in competition.[4] There are also special screenings which are kept few in number in order to provide them greater visibility.[5] Journalists and films critics are invited to vote after each screening of the selection, after which the Grand Prize is awarded. Feature films also compete for the SACD Prize, which is awarded for best screenplay, and the Gan Foundation Award, which helps films get distribution.[6] Short films can receive the Canal+ Award and the Discovery Award.[7] Debut feature films are eligible for the Caméra d'Or, which is open to all first films in Official Selection and the parallel sections at Cannes.[8]

Notable jury presidents have included Cristian Mungiu, Joachim Trier, Lee Chang-dong, Bertrand Bonello, Miguel Gomes, Andrea Arnold, Ronit Elkabetz, Valérie Donzelli, Ciro Guerra and Kleber Mendonça Filho.[9]
