The Chinese film Bai Ri Yan Huo (Black Coal, Thin Ice) has won the Golden Bear for best picture at the Berlin international film festival.
Liao Fan won the prize for best actor in the same film, while Haru Kuroki won best actress for her role in the Japanese movie Chiisai Ouchi (The Little House).
Bai Ri Yan Huo features an overweight detective, played by Liao Fan, on the trail of a serial killer.
"It's really hard to believe this dream has come true," a stunned Diao Yinan, director of the winning film, told the festival audience.
