Official Selection

Official Awards

Michael Haneke, winner of the 2012 Palme d'Or
Matteo Garrone, winner of the 2012 Grand Prix

The Palme d'Or was won by the French-language film Amour directed by Michael Haneke. Haneke previously won the award for The White Ribbon in 2009.[27] Love tells the story of an elderly couple preparing for death.[28] During his acceptance speech, the director said "A very, very big thanks to my actors who have made this film. It's their film. They are the essence of this film."[27]

Moretti said that none of the winners had been selected unanimously, and described such an outcome as "a middle ground that would have pleased no one". He revealed that Holy Motors, Paradise: Love and Post Tenebras Lux were the entries that most had divided the jury.[29]
