Ami deepens its commitment  to cinema, creativity, and young talents. This year, the Parisian fashion house becomes the foremost partner of this 64th edition of La Semaine de la Critique thanks to the AMI Paris Grand Prix. 

“Cinema is one of the great passions of my life, just like fashion. La Semaine de la Critique’s AMI Paris Grand Prize is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate emerging talents and young filmmakers. Through this prize, AMI and I are very honoured to foster their creativity and help launch their career.” 

Alexandre Mattiussi, Founder and Artistic Director at AMI. 

Since 1962, La Semaine de la Critique has been dedicated to discovering and promoting emerging directors’  first and second films. It celebrates bold, innovative creations, and brings them to the international stage during the Cannes Film Festival. The 2025 edition will be held from 14 to 22 May at the Miramar in Cannes. An international jury will present the Semaine de la Critique AMI Paris Grand Prize to one of the seven films in competition.

Alexandre Mattiussi channels his passion for cinema into supporting young creators. Collaborating with La Semaine de la Critique - renowned as a platform for first-time filmmakers - was an obvious choice for AMI in reaffirming our desire to support the next generation of filmmakers.
