Katrin Cartlidge Foundation
Motivated by Katrin’s inspiring presence, the Foundation’s work is to give new voices, new perspectives and visions a chance to be seen and heard. For the last nine years the Foundation has appointed a curator, selected from Katrin’s eclectic and extensive friends and colleagues, who in turn chooses a recipient for the annual bursary. The recipient is a new cinematic voice whose work, in some way, embodies Katrin’s integrity of spirit and commitment to independent film.
Sarajevo Film Festival has great pleasure to announce that Danny Glover is curating the Katrin Cartlidge Foundation Award for 2013. The prominent actor producer and humanitarian will present this year’s Katrin Cartlidge Foundation Award Winner.
