While this year’s Oscars marked a victory for U.S. independent moviemaking with Sean Baker’s “Anora” nabbing four major awards, including best picture, it’s also a big win for the French Riviera-set Cannes Film Festival.

Edward Berger’s Vatican City-set mystery follows the very secretive process of electing a new pope. Rife with scandal and gossip, the film boasts of a stellar cast including best actor nominee Ralph Fiennes, best supporting actress nominee Isabella Rossellini with costumes by Lisy Christl, who was nominated for the best costume design award.

"Anora" also won best director for Sean Baker, best actress for Mikey Madison and trophies for original screenplay and editing.
