Here's an example of anti-Israel media bias..AFP style

When I first read the story I was totally confused. The film that won the major prize got one sentence and then the writer immediately went onto the other films in the competition, huh? The other films were detailed but the Israeli film is given the most perfunctory description. One would think that a film that won the top prize would get an explanation of why it won. Talk about not very closeted disdain.

I guess I should expect nothing more from AFP.

'Lebanon' by Israeli Samuel Maoz wins Golden Lion in Venice

VENICE (AFP) – "Lebanon" by Israeli Samuel Maoz, the story of the first Lebanon war told from inside an Israeli tank, won the Golden Lion at the Venice film festival Saturday.
Colin Firth, star of Tom Ford's "A Single Man," picked up the Volpi Cup for best actor, while Russian actress Ksenia Rappoport won best actress for her role in "La Doppia Ora."
"I'm here for the gift that Tom Ford gave me," Firth said as he accepted the award. "Tom Ford had a cause that he put in my hands, so it became a very important thing for me as well."
Ford's film about a gay professor mourning the death of his partner is an adaptation of Christopher Isherwood's landmark 1964 novel.
"A Single Man," a first film for former Gucci designer Ford, 48, offers a moving snapshot of life as a homosexual more than four decades ago.
Iranian photographer and visual artist Shirin Neshat won the Silver Lion for best director for "Women Without Men."
Her directorial debut dissects Iranian society at the time of the 1953 CIA-backed coup that overturned the nationalist government of Mohammed Mossadegh and installed the shah in power.
Against that backdrop, four women -- a prostitute, an activist, a cosmopolitan woman and a traditional young girl -- fight for individual freedom and independence, winding up together at an idyllic orchard in the countryside.
"This has been a labour of love for six years," Neshat said. "This film speaks to the world and to my country," she said, ending her remarks by making a "V for victory" sign.
