The fabulous journey of Timecode, 2016 Palme d’or

On the 22nd of May 2016, at the Grand Théâtre Lumière, Juanjo Giménez received from the hands of Naomi Kawase and Marina Foïs the Palme d’or for the best Short Film, Timecode. It is filled with emotion that the spanish film director thanks the Festival and declares « Luis Buñuel, you have the big one, I have the small one and that is much more difficult! ».

It’s the beginning of a long and wonderful path with numerous awards nominations and distinctions.
