The 60th International Berlin Film Festival came to a close on Sunday. The Jury, led by Werner Herzog, awarded the top prize, the Golden Bear, to Bal (Honey), the third part of Turkish director Semih Kaplanoglu's trilogy.
Roman Polanski received the Silver Bear for Best Director for The Ghost Writer (currently playing in theaters). Due to his legal troubles, Polanski was not able to receive the award in person. At the Auteurs Notebook, David Hudson has a complete round up of the winners.
