Isabella Rossellini has received the Excellence Award at Locarno.

“The prize I’m receiving tonight is for excellence, which is something I haven’t heard very often,” she said during the opening ceremony.

“I’m very proud of it and, above all, so moved because my father received this back in 1948 for his film ‘Germany, Year Zero.’ And then, four years ago, my brother Renzo [Rossellini], who was a great producer of Fellini and Scola. Being on par with my father and my brother fills me with so much emotion.”
