The 80th Venice International Film Festival is handing out its trophies, including the Golden Lion for best film, at a ceremony on Saturday night.
The Venice festival jury, headed by jury president Damien Chazelle, includes directors Jane Campion, Martin McDonagh, Laura Poitras, Santiago Mitre and Mia Hansen-Love, Palestinian actor Saleh Bakri and Chinese actress Shu Qi. The jury will pick this year’s Golden and Silver Lion winners.
The dual strikes in Hollywood have meant the 2023 Biennale was less star-studded than usual but, judged by the films alone, it was a fine vintage.
