In addition to "Sarah's Key," which will run out of competition, organizers have added Chang-dong Lee's "Poetry" and Richard J. Lewis' "Barney's Version" as the bookends for the Zabaltegi-Pearls showcase. Diego Luna will open the Latin Horizons section with his directorial debut "Abel."
Norwegian director Hans Petter Moland will chair the New Directors jury. Directors Elisabet Cabeza and Albertina Carri, author Marc Levy and musician Fermin Muguruza make up the rest of the jury.
The festival, which runs Sept. 17-25 in Spain's northern Basque region, has yet to announce the main competition's jury.
