EIFF Awards announced
As the 60th Edinburgh International Film Festival drew to a close, the outgoing Festival Artistic Director, Shane Danielsen, hosted a very low-key Awards ceremony to a room full of industry delegates and luminaries.
The Michael Powell Award for Best New British Feature Film was awarded to the excellent Brothers of the Head, directed by Keith Fulton and Louis Pepe. The Award was collected by the film's screenwriter Tony Grisoni and its stars Luke and Harry Treadaway.
The Award panel included Jury Chair, actor John Hurt, Irish writer John Banville, Scottish director Michael Caton-Jones and rock legend Chrissie Hynde.
The Skillset New Directors Award went to a bemused Paul Andrew Williams for his urban thriller, London to Brighton
The Best Documentary Award went to Jake Clennell for The Great Happiness Space: Tale of an Osaka Love Thief, about the young men of a Japanese escort agency.
The Standard Life Audience Award went to the hilarious fan-boy film Clerks II, with almost 70% of the votes. The Award was presented by local legend Sir Sean Connery.
