Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The Stockholm film festival on Friday honoured French actress Isabelle Huppert, who starred in "8 Women" alongside Catherine Deneuve, with its Bronze Horse in a tribute to her lifetime achievement.
Huppert, who is 58, will be in Stockholm in November to receive the prestigious award.
"Fearlessness and contemplation are the opposing poles in the space where her characters are created and exist," the festival said.
"She is the muse to the greatest of film auteurs, and at the same time, her own incomparable auteur."
Since "The Lacemaker" in 1977 by Swiss director Claude Goretta, she has taken on "memorable" roles, it added.
The Stockholm film festival which was created in 1990 runs November 9-20.
The Bronze Horse is awarded every year and has gone to Roman Polanski, Lauren Bacall, David Lynch, Charlotte Rampling and Wong Kar Wai, among others.
