MUMBAI: Gael Garcia Bernal, known for his film Motorcycle Diaries, has become one of the youngest actors to win a career achievement award at the Locarno International Film Festival in Switzerland.
The Mexican actor, whose career spans more than 20 years, said he still feels inexperienced as he accepted the Excellence Award at the annual movie event on Wednesday, according to a report.
A similar honour was given to veteran British actress Charlotte Rampling earlier in the festival that kicked off on 1 August.
Past recipients of this award include Susan Sarandon, John Malkovich and Willem Dafoe.
