Swedish film Together walked away the top winner at the 38th annual Gijon International Film Festival (November 24 - December 1).
Together writer-director Lukas Moodysson's follow-up to last year's Fucking Amal took home the best director, best script, best actor (Michael Nyquist) and young jury awards.
Pawel Pawlikowski's The Last Resort was awarded best feature film, and the film's lead, Dina Korzun, won the best actress prize.
Jocelyn Cammack's Better Or Worse' won for best short film, while Bahman Ghobadi's A Time For Drunken Horses was awarded the special jury prize.
Gijon opened this year with the controversial French film Baise-Moi. The festival's emphasis on independent world cinema has earned it the nickname "the Spanish Sundance."
