International Georges de Beauregard Award

Sponsored by Vidéo de Poche. Awarded by the International Competition Jury.

Chantal de Beauregard created the Georges de Beauregard Award as a tribute to her father, film producer Georges de Beauregard. In order to create a more relevant and lasting legacy, she chose to integrate the award to FID, as George de Beauregard was born in Marseille and his mother’s family was from this city. Born in the Saint-Jérôme neighborhood in Marseille, George de Beauregard produced short, medium-length and feature films, some of which are celebrated as documents that captured both history and their time: La Passe du diable after Joseph Kessel’s novel (1957), Jean-Luc Godard’s Le Petit Soldat (1960) on the Algerian War, or classics such as Breathless (À Bout de souffle), Cleo from 5 to 7 and Pierrot le fou.
