# South African filmmaker Dian Weys says he hopes his short film’s selection for the 78th Cannes Film Festival in France will draw attention to the country’s film industry. Vultures (Aasvoëls) has been selected in the Short Film Competition with 11 others selected from over four-thousand entries. It stars Edwin van der Walt, Jill Levenberg, Albert Pretorius, and Oscar Petersen. South African director Oliver Hermanus’s The History of Sound will compete in the Feature Films Competition. The festival runs from tomorrow to the 24th of this month.
