Cannes 2012 closes with the late Claude Miller's Thérèse Desqueyroux.

Today, the 65th Cannes International Film Festival ends its events with the screening of the late French director Claude Miller "Thérèse Desqueyroux". The film will have a private screening after the closing ceremony which is considered an honoring for the late director's prosperous career which ended with his death in April last year at the age of 70 and Miller's family and friends shall attend. "Thérèse Desqueyroux"-which is an adaptation of Francois Mauriac's novel written in 1927 that carries the same name- is about an unhappily married young woman who resists the social pressure in her small community and tries to break free especially when it comes to her marriage from a wealthy man for his connections to the family. It is worth mentioning that Miller has participated in Cannes twice, the first with his 1988 film "Classe de neige" which won the Jury Award, and the second was in 2003 with "La Petite Lili".
