The 81st Venice Film Festival (28 August-7 September) has announced the recipients of this year’s parallel awards. Traditionally, the winners are decided on independently by associations of film critics, clubs and cultural associations, as well as cinema professionals.
Among these are the prizes awarded by the International Federation of Film Critics (FIPRESCI). The jury, made up of Alissa Simon (USA), Gaia Simonati (Italy), Hannah Pilarczyk (Germany), Martin Horyna (Czech Republic), Jean-Philippe Guerand (France) and Simone Soranna (Italy), bestowed the FIPRESCI Prize for Best Competition Film upon Brady Corbet’s The Brutalist [+lire aussi :

Furthermore, the Prize for Best Orizzonti or International Film Critics’ Week Film went to Bogdan Mureșanu’s The New Year that Never Came [+lire aussi :

As tensions reach boiling point, an explosive moment unites them, culminating in the dramatic fall of Ceauşescu and his communist regime.
Finally, this year’s Queer Lion went to Mónica Taboada-Tapia’s Alma del desierto (Colombia/Brazil), showcased in the Giornate degli Autori section of the festival. Set in the arid landscapes of La Guajira, Colombia, the picture zooms in on a transgender Wayúu woman called Georgina. She knows that her time is running out and wants to change her existence. With nothing to lose, she sets out to meet her siblings, who don’t speak Spanish and are barely surviving on the fringes of the opaque Colombian bureaucratic system. Amid open wounds, memories, and unfathomable geographical and emotional distances, Georgina and her people agree that enough is enough.
