Jonathan Demme, winner of an Oscar for best director for The Silence of the Lambs (1991), and director of films including Something Wild (1986), Philadelphia (1993), The Manchurian Candidate (2004) and Neil Young: Heart of Gold (2006) will chair the Official Jury at the coming edition of the San Sebastian Film Festival.

Academy Award-winning director, Jonathan Demme will present his new feature film, Rachel Getting Married, and a “work in progress” version of his latest Neil Young concert film, Neil Young Trunk Show: Scenes from a Concert.

Demme has taken part in the San Sebastian Film Festival on three occasions –Stop Making Sense out of competition as part of the 1984 New Directors section; Married to the Mob as part of the 1988 Official Selection; and in 2006 with Neil Young: Heart of Gold in Zabaltegi-Perlas.
