Alan Rickman, the actor who portrayed Severus Snape in the Harry Potter films, will receive the Kristián Award for Artistic Contribution to World Cinematography at the 22nd Febiofest International Film Festival. The Febiofest International Film Festival will be held March 19 in Prague.

The Kristián Award is awarded to individuals for their lifelong contribution to cinematography.

A few other awards that Rickman has received include a Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for TV for Rasputin and a BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role for Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.

Besides receiving the Kristián Award, Rickman will also introduce his latest film A Little Chaos. A Little Chaos was directed by and stars Rickman. Also starring in the film is Kate Winslet (Titanic, Contagion), Matthias Schoenaerts (Rust and Bone, The Drop), and Stanley Tucci (Transformers: Age of Extinction, The Devil Wears Prada). The movie takes place in 17th-century France during the reign of King Louis XIV. To read more about the film and what Rickman has to say about it check out our previous article.
