FCCA’s Adrienne McKibbins said Over the years the FCCA has presented a number of special awards to individuals who have contributed something outstanding /exceptional through their work to cinema and film culture. This is not a Life Achievement Award, as a number of recipients - including Rolf, we hope - are only part way through their career.”
