Marco Bahler It is a warm May evening on the Croisette and Huma Qureshi is, by her own cheerful reckoning, in the middle of everything. She is at Cannes for the fourth time. She has been to Berlin twice, Toronto once, Busan. Venice and Sundance remain on the list.
This year she is here for the Red Sea Film Foundation Women in Cinema event at the Cannes Film Festival – which brought together participants from across the Arab world, Africa and India – and as an ambassador for BMW, whose carpet she walked. There is no film in competition. “Not with a film, unfortunately,” she says. “Another time, next year, inshallah.”
