Cannes International Film Festival began in the late 1930 s, France in this era was inspired by the rising fascism in Germany and Italy, especially The German propaganda minister, Joseph goebbels, made a big effort to make Leni Riefenstahl's Berlin Olympics in 1936, then become a 1938 documentary "Olympia, featured in the 1938 Venice film festival and won the best foreign film, the Mussolini award. So Jean Zay, the French minister of public administration and art, accepted the advice of Philippe Erlanger and decided to create a new international film festival in Cannes. Its full name is Festival international du film. The choice of Cannes is because of the climate. The film festival was cancelled after the German invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939. On September 3rd France and Britain declared war on Germany.

After the second world war, on September 20, 1946, with the support of the French ministry of foreign affairs, the ministry of education and the film federation, the Cannes film festival was held by the French association for artistic action. This was the first time. It was not until 2002 that the Festival was officially named "Festival DE Cannes".
