Brian Award
The Brian Award (in Italian: Premio Brian) is the award given since 2006 to “a film that highlights and enhances the values of rationality, respect for human rights, democracy, pluralism, promotion of individuality, freedom of conscience, expression and research, the principle of equal opportunities in public institutions for all citizens, without the frequent distinctions based on sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, religious or philosophical stands” among those presented during the Venice International Film Festival.[1]
History
The "Brian Award" was inspired by the name of the Monty Python's satire movie Life of Brian. The award initially took the form of a golden globe with glass balls inside, created by the Italian jeweler-artist Giovanni Corvaja. Later, it was a transparent plaque bearing the award's logo. The award was established by the Italian Union of Rationalist Atheists and Agnostics[2][3] (member of Humanists International).
