Actress Hadas Yaron and actor-director Don McKellar are at the 34th Torino Film Festival as members of the official jury chaired by Ed Lachman. They haven’t established a criteria to judge the first, second and third film in the official competition but on FRED they reveal the elements and the aspects that they’re moved by while watching a film and evaluating it. From the musicals to horror films, McKellar and Yaron confess their “cinematographic” guilty pleasures.

At the 33rd Torino Film Festival, she received the 500X Award – Fiat for her performance in La felicità è un sistema complesso by Gianni Zanasi (2015).
Don McKellar (Canada), writer, director and actor, was the screenwriter of Roadkill and Highway 61, and co-wrote Dance Me Outside and The Red Violin. He received a Genie Award for his role in Atom Egoyan’s Exotica and the Prix de la Jeunesse at Cannes for his directorial debut, Last Night (1998).
