Cate Blanchett managed to steal the show with her appearance at the Cannes Film Festival.

The actress appeared on the seventh day of the film festival in a dress that symbolized her solidarity for Palestine.

The dress chosen by the Hollywood star had the colours of the Palestinian flag, showing Kate Blanchett’s support for the people in the midst of the war with Israel.

Her ensemble was black in the front and white in the back, while the tail ended in a green hue, which, combined with the red carpet, alluded to the flag.

Twitter comments followed one after another, with the audience praising the actress for daring to make the move at an event as big as the Cannes Film Festival.
