Ukrainian model Sawa Pontyjska reportedly says a red-carpet incident with a controversial Cannes festival security guard caused 'severe psychological trauma.'
A Ukrainian model reportedly filed a lawsuit against the Cannes Film Festival over alleged mistreatment on the red carpet by a security guard — who is facing similar criticism over other tense interactions with women attendees. The model, Sawa Pontyjska, said in her lawsuit that she was aggressively restrained by the security guard as she attempted to enter the May 21 premiere of 'Marcello Mio.
' 'This event has prevented me from sleeping three straight nights and I've received innumerable messages of support from my fans who have tried to soothe me,' she added, 'I ask that you also note that after having been pushed inside, further from the cameras and spectators, I was thrown out through a back door and I could not attend the playing of the movie that I came for.' The Cannes Film Festival did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
