Roman Polanski was awarded the César for best achievement for "J'accuse".

Roman Polanski, the object of strong criticism after a new accusation of rape, received Friday the César of the best realization for "J'accuse", historical thriller on the Dreyfus Affair. Actress Adèle Haenel, symbol of a new momentum of #MeToo in France since she accused director Christophe Ruggia in November of "repeated touching" when she was a teenager, left the room after the announcement of this prize awarded to the Franco-Polish filmmaker.
