Kiran Pahwa 26 May 2008

Cannes, France - Italian directors scored top awards at the Cannes Film Festival with the nation's two films selected in the main competition winning key prizes.

While Paolo Sorrentino was awarded the jury prize for his political satire about Italy's seven-time prime minister Giulio Andreotti, Matteo Garrone's powerful expose of the Mafia, Gomorrah, emerged from the festival with the Grand Prix, which is the third prize after Palme d'Or.

A total of 22 films were part of the 12-day festival's main competition. (dpa)
