To mark its centenary, FIPRESCI launched the FIPRESCI 100 Lifetime Achievement Award in 2025, a series of tributes honoring filmmakers whose remarkable careers have been consistently admired and championed by film critics over the decades. Conceived as a global initiative rather than a location-specific prize, FIPRESCI 100 is presented at major film festivals around the world, reflecting the Federation’s international scope and its enduring commitment to celebrating cinema’s most significant creative voices.
