The 15. Queer Lion Award – collateral award of the 78th Venice International Film Festival, ideated in 2007 by Daniel N. Casagrande – has been awarded to La derni\u00e8re s\u00e9ance<\/strong> by Gianluca Matarrese.<\/p>\n

Motivation:<\/p>\n

The Queer Lion 2021 goes to La derni\u00e8re s\u00e9ance<\/strong> (The Last Chapter) by Gianluca Matarrese, for its ability to draw a portrait shifting from intimate to universal, thanks to the documentary form used with outstanding narrative cogency, to give voice to the necessary memory of a chapter of history – the era of Aids – that is far from over, while at the same time cleverly dismantling the taboo surrounding BDSM practices.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The jury \u2013 composed by Ilaria Feole <\/strong>(journalist, film critic), Antonella Benanzato <\/strong>(journalist, artist), Angelica Lorenzon <\/strong>(interpreter) \u2013 chose the winner among the following 10 titles:<\/p>\n
