Berlin
With nearly half a million admissions the Berlinale 2014 again proved to be one of the biggest festival for film audiences. The Golden Bear went to "Bai Ri Yan Huo" (Black Coal, Thin Ice) by Diao Yinan, one of four Chinese competition entries. The Ecumenical Jury awarded its Prize in the competition to "Kreuzweg" (Stations of the Cross) by Dietrich Brüggemann, Germany, which also won a Silver Bear for Best Screenplay.
