Robert Bresson Prize
The Robert Bresson Prize is a recognition offered during the Venice Film Festival to the director who, according to the Pontifical Councils for Culture and for Social Communications of the Vatican, “has given a testimony, significant for sincerity and intensity, of the difficult passage in search of spiritual meaning in our lives”.
In 2010, on the occasion of the 11th edition of the Prize, a special piece of art has been realized. The title of the work is “HOPE” and was made by the artist Andrea Cagnetti - Akelo.
