French electronic duo Daft Punk will premiere their film, Daft Punk's Electroma, at this year's Cannes Film Festival. The movie, directed by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter, the human/robot hybrids behind Daft Punk, is, "...a psychedelic musical and visual odyssey that revolves around two robots and their quest to become human," according to the press release. The reclusive musicians recently played their first show in eight years at this year's Coachella Festival, and have a few European festival appearances scheduled as well.

Daft Punk's Electroma is part of the Director's Fortnight, which takes place "in parallel," but not as an official part of the Cannes Film Festival. According to the Director's Fortnight website, the film is fittingly "sans dialogues" (that's without talking), and will run until May 28.
