Venice, Italy - US film director Sofia Coppola's Somewhere on Saturday won the Golden Lion for best film at the Venice Film Festival.
The film, which looks at the loneliness faced by a Hollywood star, follows protagonist Johnny Marco, played by Stephen Dorff, whose supposedly glamorous, but essentially shallow life, is suddenly changed when his 11-year-old daughter Chloe, played by Ellen Fanning, comes to stay with him.
This year's Venice Film Festival marked its 67th edition and saw 24 films in competition.
