Pop star Madonna made her debut at Cannes Film Festival as a filmmaker last night as she graced the red carpet for the screening of her documentary I Am Because We Are.
Directed, written, produced and narrated by the star I Am Because We Are shows the devastating effects of Aids in Malawi.
In southeastern Africa, the landlocked and densely populated country of Malawi is under severe distress.
In a country of 12 million people, an unprecedented one million-plus children have been orphaned by AIDS, and malnutrition and inadequate medical treatment still run rampant.
The film features interviews with former U.S. president Bill Clinton and shows children living in desperate poverty as well as highlighting how the education system can ease the situation.
Madonna was joined on the red carpet by a whole host of stars on the red carpet including director husband Guy Richie. Sharon Stone and ex-husband Sean Penn.
Madonna and Guy are currently in the middle of court proceedings to adopt a three-year-old Malawian boy.
