Comments Jenni Critchfield, CEO of Cinemark, the SA representatives of Cannes Lions, “It is a great honour to compete at the Cannes Advertising Festival, and we feel that the standard of the Young Lions entries is proof that our South African creatives can compete at an international level. From everyone at Cinemark, best of luck to Christo and Darren for Cannes!”
