At the Cannes Film Festival, Carla Bruni came close to falling while climbing the steps

PEOPLE – Feet in the carpet… or rather in the dress! French-Italian model and musician Carla Bruni struggled with the train of her miniskirt as she climbed the steps to attend the screening of The Zone Of Interest, during the 76th edition of the Cannes Film Festival, this Friday, May 19, 2023.

Many eyes were trained on the wife of Nicolas Sarkozy, resplendent in a short silver dress, provided with a train. And it is precisely this small detail of her outfit that harmed her: the singer almost tripped while walking on it. Carla Bruni did not show an ounce of discomfort, continuing to pose as if nothing had happened, as you can see in the pictures below.

“I come as a spectator, I come as a cinephile”she explained to France info before climbing the stairs. “I’m very impatient, I really like the programming at Cannes. Each time it’s a discovery, it’s extraordinary artists “continued the former First Lady, who describes the Festival as the “historic cradle of cinema”.

The Franco-Italian model, and many personalities such as Adriana Karembeu, Cate Blanchett, Natalie Portman, Claude Lelouch or Cédric Klapisch, walked the Cannes red carpet, where British director Jonathan Glazer’s film was honored , The Zone of interest.

Based on a novel by the British Martin Amis published in 2014, the story of The Zone of interest tells that of a Nazi officer who fell in love with the wife of the commander of the Auschwitz extermination camp.

This film which wishes to show the trivialization of horror is presented at Cannes, when Shoah by Claude Lanzmann was registered this Friday in the register of the Memory of the World of Unesco, whose mission is to protect the documentary heritage throughout the world. A (very) 9:30 a.m. feature film which tells, “the unspeakable” of the systematic extermination of the Jews by the Nazis.
