Golden Ibis Award

The Golden Ibis Award is an accolade presented annually to recognize excellence of professionals in the film industry, including directors, actors, writers and composers. The award was established by Christophe Barratier and Sam Bambino in 2014. Historically given during the last quarter of the year at the La Baule Film Festival, the awards honor achievements for cinematic accomplishments for the preceding year.

The various category winners are awarded a copy of a statuette, which was created by artist Joëlle Bellet.
