Ghent film fest offers musical variation on a theme

August 14, 2007 Dubrulle says that for the first time in the festival's history, all of the film-music content -- including the special tango and dance music fiesta with Santaolalla -- will take place during the last three days of Ghent's run, culminating with the seventh edition of the World Soundtrack Awards on Oct. 20. The jury, led by actress Kathleen Turner, will present awards for best film, director and screenplay, in addition to the Georges Delerue Award for best music and the Joseph Plateau Award for lifetime achievement. Other events on tap this year include performances from composers Alberto Iglesias, Mychael Danna and Harry Gregson-Williams, as well as a special guest appearance by 2006's World Soundtrack Discovery of the Year winner, Evanthia Reboutsika.
