"Spanish fantasy film Pan&amp;#039;s Labyrinth has scooped BBC Four&amp;#039;s Pioneer World Cinema Award 2008. The movie, which has won three Oscars and three BAFTAs, lifted the prize at last night&amp;#039;s ceremony at the BFI Southbank in London. Director Guillermo del Toro flew from Paris to collect the award from actress Catherine Deneuve. He said: &amp;quot;I am very humbled by the competition and the nominations so I am very happy to have won this award. I am extremely thankful because world cinema seems to be not only about geography of the world out there, but about charting the world within us.  &amp;quot;Very often people think that the only way to tell the truth is through reality. So I find, by my own experience, irreality is sometimes a better tool to tell the truth.&amp;quot; The movie was chosen from a shortlist of five by a panel consisting of actor Christopher Eccleston, documentary-maker Nick Broomfield and actress Archie Panjabi. It beat Oscar-nominated drama The Lives Of Others, as well as The Science Of Sleep, Climates and Syndromes And A Century. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
