The program typically presents a competitive selection of around fid hims, all released exclusively in their country of origin and not entered in any other European festival. Internationally renowned for maintaining rigorous artistic standards, the Venice Festival awards some of the film Industry' s most distinguished prizes, especially the Golden Lion award for the best film. The Venice Festival' s focus on presenting films of high artistic merit prevents this festival from acquiring the commercial atmosphere of the Cannes Film Festival or the Berlin International Film Festival, but it has also lent the Venice Festival an. air of exclusivity. Festival director Gillo Pontecorvo has attempted to combat this reputation by ending the traditional exclusion of Hollywood films from the program.
