Two appearances, one announcement
The festival is honoring Bardem’s career and programming El ser querido, directed by Rodrigo Sorogoyen. Paolo Sorrentino is announced as the person presenting the award, not the film’s director.
The flip side
The September 14 news confirms the honor and festival program, not the precise ceremony day. Reporting it as an award already received would move the event ahead of the evidence.
Update note: Original source-read briefing adds specific context and evidentiary limits beyond the short feed summary.
