Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn wins Golden Bear prize at 71st Berlin film fest
Sun, 7 March 2021
The 71st Berlin film festival awarded its Golden Bear top prize on March 5 to
Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn by Romania’s Radu Jude, a satire skewering pandemic-era social hypocrisy with the story of a teacher whose sex tape winds up on the internet.
This year’s Berlinale was held entirely online for critics and industry buyers but judged by a jury made up of previous winners, who watched the 15 contenders in a specially reserved cinema.
