The Berlinale jury staked on candor
The 68th Berlin International Film Festival has completed its work in Germany. The opening of the show took place on February 15, and it began with the demonstration of a new creation by Wes Anderson "The Island of Dogs". The animated film was among the contestants and brought Anderson the prize for the best director.All in all, 19 films were presented in the main program, and the judges recognized the Romanian drama "Don't Touch" the best among them.
