- The awards ceremony of the San Sebastian Festival distinguished two films above the others: Pacified by Brazilian director Paxton Winters, the Golden Shell has been brought to the best film and won two other awards: Buassa Kabengel, best actor and best photography.
The Infinite Trench, by Aitor Arrangi, Jon Garaño and Jose Mari Goenaga, has also won many other awards.
In particular, the film of the house Moriarti has won the Irizar Prize for the Basque Cinema for the Best Screenplay, as well as the Best Direction Awards. The directors have claimed the Basque and Andalusian character of the film and have also reminded Juanmi Gutierrez, who died this year in the Gipuzkoan capital.
The Special Jury Prize at the San Sebastian Film Festival two years ago was the first step in the successful career of this film; with the recognition this year, the trajectory of The Infinite Trench has received a great boost.
The award for the best actress has been for two actresses and ex-aequo actors: Daughter of a thief of Greta Fernández and Nina Hoss in The Audition. The jury's special prize has been for Proxima.
