Sydney Film Festival: Italian Box Office Hit ‘There’s Still Tomorrow’ Wins Top Prize
The Sydney Film Festival gave its top prize to the Italian box office hit ‘There’s Still Tomorrow’.
A jury headed by Danis Tanovic called the film about an industrious woman in post WWII Rome “audacious, cutting-edge and courageous.” The prize is one of the richest awarded at any festival and is worth A$60,000 ($39,600). The A$20,000 ($13,200) Documentary Australia award went to local filmmaker James Bradley, for “Welcome to Babel,” which charts Chinese-Australian artist Jiawei Shen’s plans to create an epic work. The 2024 recipient of the A$40,000 ($26,400) Sustainable Future Award was U.S. filmmaker Alina Simone for her film “Black Snow,” a documentary about a Siberian eco-activist, who fights for her community in a remote Russian mining town.
