Shelly Nadashi from Israel won the golden cow at last week's GSTAADFILM  festival. But much of the media spotlight actually fell on Harald Reichenbach, one of the organizers of the festival, who read out a letter by Roman Polanski during his opening speech. In this letter Polanski expressed his regret for not being able to be present personally, conveyed is best wishes for a successful festival, and thanked the people of Gstaad for their ongoing support.
