Carolyn Giardina Steve McQueen — director of best picture Oscar winner “12 Years a Slave” and upcoming “Blitz” — will receive the Outstanding Director Award at the 32nd EnergaCamerimage international cinematography film festival in Torun, Poland. “Steve McQueen is an artist known for his uncompromising engagement in tackling difficult social and political issues. His vivid filmmaking style explores the problems of racism, violence, addiction and inequality, constantly moving and provoking discussion, which situates him as one of the most important contemporary film creators,” said Camerimage festival director Marek Żydowicz.
