Festival international du film sur l'art (FIFA) - award winners
At tonight's Closing Ceremonies for the 29th Festival international du film sur l'art (FIFA), the festival presented eleven awards for the films in competition. The Grand Prize was given to the film Antwerpen Centraal (Antwerp Central Station) by Peter Krüger from Belgium. It portrays a thoughtful look at the late nineteenth century architecture of the railway station.
The Jury Award went to Patrice Chéreau: le corps au travail by Stephane Metge from France. French actor/director Mathieu Amalric also won a prize, the Award for Creativity for his short documentary Joann Sfar (Dessins).
Saint-Denys Garneau by Jean-Philippe Dupuis was named the Best Canadian Film. Fellow Canadian Jennifer Alleyn won the ARTV Springboard to the World Award for Dix Fois Dix.
The President of the Jury was historian Manon Blanchette (Canada), the executive director of the Board of Montréal Museum Directors. Joining her on the jury were Harry Bos, who directs the film theatre at the Institut Néerlandais in Paris; Belgian filmmaker Henri de Gerlache; artist and journalist Winston McQuade; and Sylvie Richard of the Institut national de l’audiovisuel (INA) in Paris.
Tomorrow is the final day of screenings for the festival.
