BIG! #srk Wins Career Achievement Award at Locarno International Film Festival
LOCARNO, Switzerland — Two gripping doc-fiction hybrids from Barcelona — “Dream of Another Summer” and “Downriver, a Tiger” — triumphed Sunday in Locarno's First Look pix-in-post series, focused on Spain.
Other prizes awarded by Locarno Pro, the festival's dynamic arm, included Liliana Cavani's 1970 “The Year of the Cannibals,” which won the Locarno Pro Historical Restoration Competition.
The laureates of the European co-production initiative Alliance 4 Development were guests at, among other things, “Bourgeois Paranoia” by Lukas Nathrath, a former winner of Locarno First Look.
