The screening in competition of Michael Moore's documentary Fahrenheit 9/11 was the event of the day. This inquiry into the Bush government's foeign policy was joined in the race for the Palme d'Or by Woman is the Future of Man, an intimate tale directed by Hong Sang-soo and Hans Weingartner's Die Fetten Jahre sind vorbei (The Edukators), a film that marked the return of German cinema to the competition 11 years after Wim Wender's In weiter Ferne, so nah! (Faraway, so Close!).
