A Venezuelan film set among the chaos and violence of Caracas - Desde Alla, or From Afar - has won the top Golden Lion prize at the Venice film festival.
In his debut feature film, director Lorenzo Vigas tells the story of a rich man who gets sexually involved with a young man from one of the city's gangs. "I want to dedicate this prize to my amazing country, Venezuela. "I know we have a few problems, but if we talk about them we will overcome them," Mr Vigas said. Venezuela is going through a serious economic crisis, which led to months of street protests last year over the shortage of many goods. On Thursday, prominent Venezuelan opposition leader Leopoldo Lopez was sentenced to 13 years and nine months in prison for inciting violence during the protests. Films should help Latin American countries "learn from the mistakes of the past," Mr Vigas added.
