Oscar-winning US star Morgan Freeman
In Sarajevo, Freeman will meet talented filmmakers from the Balkans region, the festival's press service said in a statement.
The US actor won an Oscar for his role in 2004's Eastwood boxing drama "Million Dollar Baby" and is famous for his authoritative voice that has been used to narrate documentaries and commercials, as well as film roles.
Launched near the end of Bosnia's 1992-1995 war as an act of resistance, the Sarajevo festival grew into the biggest regional film competition and has regularly been attended by leaders in world cinema.
In 2009, more than 230 films from over 50 countries, including a number of world premieres, were screened at the festival.
