We are happy to say (ok, it's bragging, but what the hell!) that a lot of our friends and guests have won important international movie awards. Anyone who's ever been to Isola Cinema festival knows we aren't really about awards and prestige, but we are still happy to acknowledge the successes of our dear guests. After Joe Weerasethakul, Lisandro Alonso and others, the time has come to congratulate our friend Yasmine Kassari!

Yasmine Kassari has won special prize for the best female film director award for her film The Sleeping Child in the 3rd International Copenhagen Film Festival. Kassari said, “This is the 20th prize that I won for this film. It makes me really happy because it shows that people like it.”

Well, people obviously really like it. And so do we! Congratulations from Izola Yasmine!
