Actor strips at ‘French Oscars’ in protest at closure of theatres and cinemas

A French actor stripped naked on stage during a scaled-back César Awards ceremony in Paris to protest against the government’s closure of theatres and cinemas during the coronavirus pandemic.

Corinne Masiero had “no culture no future” written on her chest and “give us art back Jean” on her back, in a message to the prime minister, Jean Castex.

Masiero, 57, was on stage to present the award for best costume, and wore a donkey outfit and a blood-stained dress before she stripped before the audience.

France’s answer to the Oscars, the ceremony is in normal times the biggest night on the French cinema calendar but on Friday there were no flashbulbs on the red carpet and no partners on the arms of award nominees.

The ceremony took place at a theatre as anger and frustration grows amongactors, musicians and artists at the government’s unwillingness to set a date for the reopening of museums, galleries, concert halls and movie houses.

Marina Foïs, one of France’s best known comedians, took aim at the government’s closure of theatres and cinemas in a searing speech to open the ceremony.

Foïs, who hosted the night, criticised the culture minister, Roselyne Bachelot, for finding time to write a book during the Covid-19 crisis and said: “I’m losing confidence in you.”

She also criticised the French government’s broader strategy to counter the virus as cases in the country topped 4 million.

“They cooped up our youngsters, closed our cinemas and theatres and banned concerts so that they could open churches, because we’re a secular country, so that old people could go to church,” she said. The majority of French people are Roman Catholic.

Across the capital, several dozen protesters occupied the Odeon Theatre for an eighth night, demanding cultural venues be reopened and more financial support.
