<strong>A French actress protested naked at a Cesar Awards ceremony demanding that the government do more to support culture during the coronavirus pandemic, according to a BBC report on Saturday.</strong></p>
<p>
Corinne Masiero, 57, wore a donkey costume over a blood-stained dress before stripping on stage at France&#39;s film award ceremony that is the equivalent of the Oscars. Cinemas have been shut in France for more than three months.</p>
<p>
Masiero was invited to Friday&#39;s socially-distanced ceremony to present the award for the best costumes.</p>
<p>
But she shocked those present in the concert hall by stripping naked on stage to reveal the message &quot;No culture, no future&quot; written across her torso. And appealing to French PM Jean Castex, Masiero had another slogan on her back which in English translated to :&nbsp; &quot;Give us back art, Jean,&quot;&nbsp; the BBC report said.</p>
<p>
Other actors and directors are reported to have made similar demands during the show.</p>
<p>
The best film award at the ceremony went to Albert Dupontel&#39;s dark comedy Adieu Les Cons (Goodbye Morons).</p>
<p>
The film – which depicts a desperate search by a seriously ill woman for her child – won seven C&eacute;sars, including one for the best director.</p>
<p>
Best foreign film went to Denmark&#39;s Another Round, directed by Thomas Vinterberg, which shows a group of friends trying to improve their lives by maintaining a permanent level of alcohol in their blood.</p>
