Italian Paolo and Vittorio Taviani won the Berlinale’s Golden Bear on Saturday for their black and white drama “Caesar Must Die.”

The semi-documentary pic centers on inmates of the Rebibbia maximum security prison in Rome who stage Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar.”

The Taviani brothers said the film was neither a documentary film nor a feature film, but rather something new, and a real look at prisoners serving life sentences.

The fest’s international jury spread prizes far and wide, with the Silver Bear Jury Grand Prix going to Bence Fliegauf’s Hungarian pic “Just the Wind,” which offers a stark look at racially motivated violence.

German helmer Christian Petzold picked up the Silver Bear for best director for his East German drama “Barbara,” about an East German doctor who is harshly reprimanded for wanting to leave the GDR.

Rachel Mwanza took the actress Silver Bear for “War Witch,” about a girl soldier trying to survive in an African civil war. The Silver Bear for best actor went to Mikkel Boe Folsgaard for Nikolaj Arcel’s “A Royal Affair,” which also picked up the Silver Bear for Best Script for Arcel and Rasmus Heisterberg.

Cinematographer Lutz Reitemeier won the Silver Bear for Outstanding Artistic Achievement for his work in Wang Quan’an’s Chinese drama “White Deer Plain.”

Miguel Gomes’ Portuguese black and white drama “Tabu” nabbed the Alfred Bauer Prize, which is awarded to works of “particular innovation.”

“I don’t quite understand winning a prize for innovation because I set out to make an old-fashioned film,” quipped Gomes as he accepted the award.

The jury awarded a Special Mention Silver Bear to Ursula Meier’s Swiss drama “Sister,” about a poor boy who steals from wealthy tourists at Swiss ski resort in order to survive.

Boudewijn Koole’s Dutch Generation Kplus screener “Kauwboy,” about a young boy who adopts a motherless baby bird, won the Best First Feature Award. Emin Alper’s “Beyond the Hill,” a Turkish-Greek drama that unspooled in Forum, took First Feature Special Mention.
