Two Chinese filmmakers won the top awards at the Marrakesh film festival this weekend, with Zang Qiwu's "The Donor" on the controversial issue of organ transplants taking the coveted Golden Star.
The best director award went to China's Wang Xuebo for "Knife in the Clear Water".
Fourteen films competed in the annual festival but the top prize was Saturday handed to "The Donor" a drama about a poor father forced to sell his kidney to look after his family.
Both Zang and Wang, seen as up and rising filmmakers, had also taken the two main prizes at the Busan International Film Festival in South Korea in October.
Zang has long worked alongside acclaimed Chinese director Zhang Yimou but "The Donor" was his first work as a director and portrayed the tragedies that come with organ transplants.
"Knife in the Clear Water", also Wang's first feature film, tells the story of a farmer and the realities of life in a mountain village.
The Jury Prize at the festival was awarded to "Mister Universo" a film co-directed by Italian Tizza Covi and Austrian Rainer Frimmel.
Best actress award went to Fereshteh Hosseini for her performance in the film "Parting" of Afghan director Navid Mahmoudi.
