With about 70 films now behind her, Juliette Binoche is one of the most significant actors around today.
“First I want to thank Göteborg Film Festival for this honorary award, I take it as a wink, a tap on the shoulder or even a hug! I almost want to answer that I hope it doesn’t mean anything too serious! I feel very lucky doing what I’m doing, I still have the same passion, still have a lot to learn, the joy I’m sharing on the sets are gold to me! Being an actor is a work of service. The key for me, is to do it with full commitment!” – Juliette Binoche.
Juliette Binoche will attend Göteborg Film Festival from February 2nd to February 4th. She will receive the Honorary Dragon Award at the Dragon Award gala on February 3rd.
Göteborg Film Festival will also honour Binoche with a retrospective of a selection of her films.
