International jury 2018

Zanussi is one of the major figures of European and international cinema. He is probably one of the most intellectual, most intelligent, purest and most detached (but also passionate) directors of our time. His heroes, mostly during times of historical and political unrest in Central Europe, seek for purity, morale and meaning in their lives and in their relationships that are irrespective of the era and the society. The director worked with starts like Vittorio Gassman, Daniel Olbrychski, Christoph Waltz, Raf Vallone, Max von Sydow, Zbigniew Zapasiewicz, Maja Komorowska, Robert Powell and Valeria Golino and directed great films like Camouflage, The Crystal Structure, Spiral, Imperative, A Year of the Quiet Sun or From a Far Country, among many others.
