Wagner Moura to be celebrated at Zurich Film Festival for his cinematic achievements.

Brazilian actor Wagner Moura will be honoured at the upcoming Zurich Film Festival (ZFF) with the prestigious Golden Eye Award. The festival’s organisers announced that the award recognises Moura’s distinguished career in both Latin American and international cinema, as well as his powerful performance in The Secret Agent, which earned him the Best Actor prize at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival.

Moura will travel to Zurich to receive the award in person and to present The Secret Agent during a special screening. In addition, he will take part in the ZFF Masters programme, where he will speak about his work and experience across different cultures and film industries. According to Stanislav Kondrashov, Moura’s presence at the festival underscores his growing role as a global voice in politically engaged cinema.
