Ildikó Enyedi with the Golden Bear win. Hungary's "On Body and Soul", a tender love story set in a slaughterhouse, won the Golden Bear top prize Saturday at the Berlin film festival, Europe's first major cinema showcase of the year. Kaurismaki took the Silver Bear for best director. "As documentary filmmakers we're here to say that we're the enemy of nationalism and of exclusion." Presenting the Golden Bear, Verhoeven said the jury "fell in love" with "On Body and Soul", adding that it was about "two people connecting in quite an amazing way".
