Jennifer Lawrence looks seriously chic in a cream backless knit dress as she attends the Bread and Roses photo call at Cannes Film Festival
Jennifer Lawrence made a stylish figure when she attended the photocall for her new documentary Bread and Roses at Cannes on Sunday.
The 32-year-old actress has produced the documentary Bread and Roses, which examines the lives of three Afghan women after the Taliban takeover of Kabul.
Jennifer put on an elegant show as she joined her co-producer Justine Ciarrocchi at the 76th Annual Film Festival ahead of the documentary’s premiere.
The Joy star wore a chic knit dress, backless and strappy, paired with a pair of heeled sandals.
Jennifer wore her dark blonde hair in a low bun and opted for a natural palette of makeup to accentuate her beautiful features.

Major project: The actress, 32, has produced the documentary Bread and Roses, which explores the lives of three Afghan women after the Taliban takeover in Kabul
Bread and Roses is directed by Afghan Sahra Mani and chronicles the experiences of women from her country who have lived under the Taliban since they took control of Kabul.
The film will later premiere as a Special Screening at the festival.
The arrival of the militant political movement in Kabul in 2021 had a disastrous effect on women’s rights in the country.
They were immediately stripped of any right to education, as well as restrictions on employment and their access to public spaces.
The story of resilience has been described as a “raw, bleak portrayal of the plight of women in Afghanistan.”
In particular, it focuses on three women, who try to reclaim their identity and autonomy as viewers see the experience through their eyes.
Director Mani fled Afghanistan when the Taliban came to power in the summer of 2021 and now lives in Europe.
Elsewhere at the festival, Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese were poised for a victory lap following their critically acclaimed crime epic ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ as the festival prepared to bow to Jude Law as King Henry VIII.

Story: Bread and Roses is directed by Afghan Sahra Mani and chronicles the experiences of women from her country living under the Taliban since they took control of Kabul
Scorsese’s latest opus, about a spate of murders among oil-rich Osage Indians in the 1920s, was showered with words like “scorching,” “triumph,” and “masterpiece” by critics who scored Saturday night’s hottest ticket at the Cannes Film Festival.
Based on a non-fiction bestseller, the film sees DiCaprio as a strong-willed man who marries a wealthy Osage woman and becomes involved in the deadly schemes of his leading uncle, played by Scorsese’s other old muse, Robert De Niro.
IndieWire said DiCaprio gives “his best performance ever,” while The Guardian awarded five stars for a “remarkable epic about America’s bloody birth.”
But the festival was already set for another glitzy premiere later in the day, with ‘Firebrand’ starring Jude Law as 16th-century English King Henry VIII alongside Alicia Vikander as his sixth and final wife, Catherine Parr.
