Fishing film nets documentary prize
A film about the effects of overfishing has won a new award set up to honour films that have made a significant impact on society.

The End of the Line received the first Puma Creative Impact award, worth 50,000 euros (£43,737), at a London ceremony hosted by newsreader Jon Snow.

Director Rupert Murray said he hoped the prize would "inspire more people to make films that make a difference".

Another contender, Burma VJ, received a special commendation from the jury.
 

The Oscar-nominated film, about video journalists who go undercover to report on human rights abuses in the country, received 25,000 euros (£21,889).

US film-maker Morgan Spurlock, Christian Aid director Loretta Minghella and Queen Noor of Jordan sat on the panel that selected the winners.

Environmental documentary The Age of Stupid, starring the late Pete Postlethwaite, was among the five finalists.
