EUROPEAN PERSONALITY
OF THE YEAR AWARD
The San Sebastian International Film Festival has decided to
create a new award for a European personality to have decisively
promoted European cinema during the year.
This first European Personality of the Year Award will be presented
on Friday September 24 to Viviane Reding, member
of the European Commission responsible for Education and Culture.
These novelties round off the programme of a Festival
consisting of:
 |
Official
Section, a look at the reality and problems
of today’s world, not forgetting more personal and
intimate dilemmas. |
| |
|
 |
Zabaltegi
and Horizontes
Latinos, also reflecting this map of the world
seen through the eyes of cinema. The forcefulness of documentaries
blurring the border between reality and fiction; Latin American
cinema, a hotbed of new talent... |
| |
|
 |
Incorrect@s,
retrospective giving the floor to those who already took
a stance against imposition. |
| |
|
 |
Anthony
Mann, and his complete retrospective: the honesty
of many of his characters will offer a haven and a ray of
hope in these moments of terrible convulsion. |
| |
|
 |
Woody
Allen who, in addition to opening the Festival
on the 17th, is the subject of our contemporary retrospective,
giving us the chance to unite and review one of modern cinema’s
most important careers. |
| |
|
| |
III
International Film School Meeting
For the third year, students from 12 schools will have the
chance to present a selection of their school work at the
Festival. |
