"Precious" by Lee Daniels
Winner of three awards at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival, including the Grand Jury Prize and Audience Award in the U.S. Dramatic Competition, Lee Daniels "Precious" won a standing ovation at the Cannes Film Festival on Friday where it played to an enthusiastic crowd in the festival's Un Certain Regard sidebar.
Daniels' harrowing film is the story of an illiterate black teenager from Harlem, who is abused by her parents, pregnant with her second child and struggling to get through high school and break out of the welfare cycle she's been born into.
Daniels said before the screening of his film, which is adapted from the Novel "Push" by Sapphire , that he was "deeply honored" to be in Cannes. "It is a dream, and it is a far cry from where I came from," he told the audience.
The film stars Gabourey Sadibe, Paula Patton, Lenny Kravitz, Mariah Carey and Mo'Nique.
Produced by Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry.
"Precious" will be released nationwide November 6.
