Turkey's 3rd International Eurasia Film Festival, which will be held concurrently with the 44th Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival (Oct 19-28), has selected Shekhar Kapur's Elizabeth: The Golden Age, starring Cate Blanchett, as the closing film and also unveiled its competition line-up.

Ang Lee's Lust, Caution, which won the top Golden Lion award at Venice, will open the festival as previously announced.

The international competition has 10 European and Asian films including Asif Kapadia's Far North, Sergei Bodrov's Mongol and Feng Xiaogang's Assembly, as well as Two Turkish films - Egg, the first film of a trilogy by Semih Kaplanoglu, and Handan Ipekci's Hidden Faces.

Two awards, Best Film and Best Director, will be presented at the closing ceremony on October 28. A film critics prize for a separate competition will be given out by international film critics and the Turkish Association of Cinema Writers (see full list below).

More than 200 films will be screened at the event including around 80 Turkey premieres.
