Ukrainian model Sawa Pontyjska has filed a legal complaint against Cannes Film Festival organizers, alleging she was assaulted by a security guard while trying to enter a premiere with a legitimate ticket. The incident, captured on video and viewed over 16 million times on TikTok, shows Pontyjska being restrained and nearly falling. She claims "physical assault and psychological damage" and seeks €100,000 in damages. Singer Kelly Rowland and actresses Yoona and Massiel Taveras also reported issues with the same guard. Festival organizers have yet to comment on the allegations.
