MANCHESTER, ENGLAND, October 08, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Only a few weeks remain for film fanatics to prepare for a huge celluloid celebration in Turin.

Awards will also be presented to best actor, actress and in several other categories, too, meaning that those staying in Turin hotels over the course of the festival can be sure that they will see films of the highest calibre.
Several tributes will take place during the festival, including dedications to Nicholas Ray and Nagisa Oshima, where to entire back catalogues of both artists will be screened.
Tickets for the festival, which was originally called Festival Internazionale Cinema Giovani when it first began during the 1980s, are due to go on sale in early November and announcements about pricing will be made closer to the time.
