Queer Lion Award to “Philomena” by Stephen Frears"},"content":{"rendered":"

The moving Philomena<\/strong> presented in the Main Competition of the 70. Venice International Film Festival<\/em>, won the Queer Lion Award 2013.<\/p>\n

The jury, headed by Angelo Acerbi<\/strong> and composed by Queer Lion founder Daniel N. Casagrande<\/strong> and Marco Busato<\/strong>, general delegate of cultural association CinemArte, unanimously awarded the prize:<\/p>\n

For the ability of giving proper relevance to issues such as homosexuality, AIDS and homophobia in a movie focused on the painful topic of a 50 years long search for a son, and for emphasizing, with the light touch of a comedy, how an humble woman with a deep Catholic faith can show outright and loving acceptance for the essential, important aspects of the sexual identity and same-sex family of a ‘just re-discovered’ son<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
