Lebanese presenter Raya Abirached attended the first day wearing a Rami Al Ali fishtail dress.
While no major Hollywood stars were present at the festival's opening press conference, highlighting the scale of the American film industry's ongoing strikes, competition jury members Laura Poitras, Damien Chazelle and Martin McDonagh all wore T-shirts that read “Writers Guild on Strike!” in a gesture of solidarity with the American writers' and the actors’ unions.
