Poster

44th edition

Red State, by Kevin Smith, won the award for Best Film. Artificial intelligence shaped the Festival’s poster, with an unsettling image inspired by robotics expert Hiroshi Ishiguro, who attended Sitges. Honorees included Tony Ching Siu-tung, Michael Ironside, Jaume Balagueró, Bigas Luna, and Luigi Cozzi, among others. The program featured a trio of filmmakers who portrayed the apocalypse in radically different ways: Melancholia by Lars Von Trier, The Turin Horse by Béla Tarr, and 4:44 Last Day on Earth by Abel Ferrara.
