STORYLINE:

Gus Van Sant's "Elephant," a disturbing film about a fictional high school shooting in the United States, won the top prize at the Cannes Film Festival on Sunday.

Van Sant cast real high school students, not professional actors, to star in the film, and asked them to improvise their lines.

The movie starts out showing an ordinary day at school that turns to tragedy when two students go on a shooting spree in the hallways.

Van Sant, an American best known for "Good Will Hunting," also won the prize for best director.
