The 2018 Venice Film Festival has come to an end, and awards have been handed out to the best of this year’s fest. The prizes were selected by the festival’s jury for the year, which includes Jury President Guillermo del Toro, Sylvia Chang, Trine Dyrholm, Nicole Garcia, Paolo Genovese, Malgorzata Szumowska, Taika Waititi, Christoph Waltz, and Naomi Watts.
