Cannes 2012: Festival scraps screening of Dieudonné 'anti-Semitic' film...

The 65th Cannes Film Festival has scrapped the screening of the film "The Anti-Semite", by controversial French comic Dieudonne.

The film, also called "Yahod Setiz", in which Dieudonne takes the main role, was produced by the Iranian Documentary and Experimental Film Center (DEFC).

 The Cannes Film Market, the festival's business counterpart, called for the film to be dropped from the programme when it heard about it at the beginning of the week. Full story...
