Cannes, May 21: A semi-naked lady protestor on Friday protested against sexual violence against women in Ukraine at the Cannes red carpet. Security guards rushed rushing over to her and covered her with a coat as the woman stripped off all of her clothes and fell to her knees screaming in front of the assembled photographers, as per media reports. She had put paint over her body in the colours of the Ukrainian flag and the words 'Stop Raping Us' across her chest and abdomen. The woman also appeared to have blood-red paint over her lower back and legs with the word 'SCUM' written on her back. Earlier, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy had made an emotional address at the opening ceremony of the 75th edition of the Cannes Film Festival through a live satellite video address and called on the filmmakers to confront dictators.
