Tim Roth received the Honorary Heart of Sarajevo in 2019, at the 25th Sarajevo Film Festival, completing the four-name class with Iñárritu, Huppert and Pawlikowski. He is the British actor of Reservoir Dogs (1992), Pulp Fiction (1994) and Rob Roy (1995), and the director of the brutal family drama The War Zone (1999).
His Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction era made him a patron saint of nineties independent cinema — exactly the kind of film the Sarajevo festival has championed since its own nineties founding.

It's my first time here and I'm delighted. I was in Dubrovnik before the tourists overran it.
