Jim Jarmusch's 'Father Mother Sister Brother' unexpectedly won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival, beating out favored films like Kaouther Ben Hania's 'The Voice of Hind Rajab,' which received the Silver Lion. Jury president Alexander Payne defended the selection, stating the process was difficult and involved choosing from many strong contenders. Rumors of a jury member threatening to resign over the decision were denied by Payne.
