By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Tears: Angelina welled up on stage at the 17th annual Sarajevo Film Festival in Bosnia and Herzegovina last night as she was honoured with an award for her film In The Land Of Blood And Honey

Angelina was nearly moved to tears last night as she was honoured at an award ceremony in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The actress who turned up to the 17th Sarajevo Film Festival unannounced with her partner Brad Pitt, at the city's National Theatre, couldn't contain her emotion as she was presented with a heart-shaped award at the closing ceremony.

Clearly humbled, the 36-year-old welled up as she took to the stage as the crowd gave her a standing ovation.

'I will start crying if you don't stop,' she said in a quivering voice.

'I told Brad in the car I was afraid I was going to cry.'

'I am so honoured to be here at this festival. There is no greater example of the strengths of the artists and the festival that began during the war and grew stronger every year, ' she added.

Angelina was honoured for her directorial début, In The Land Of Blood And Honey.

She filmed the drama, which tells the tale of 'how a couple's romance is affected by the 1992-95 Bosnian War,' in the Eastern European country last year.

'Tonight we are giving the honorary Heart of Sarajevo to a great artist, not only for the great impact she has in the world of cinema but also for persisting and her active engagement in the complexities of the real world we live in,' said Festival Director Mirsad Purivatra as he presented Angelina with the award.

The actress slipped into a floor-length peach gown slit to the thigh, for the occasion.


What are you looking at? Brad couldn't help but stare at his beautiful partner's stunning assets


On the arm of her handsome partner Brad Pitt, she flashed hints of her long toned legs.

She also flashed what appeared to be a new tattoo on her left arm..

The inking seemed to be quite large taking up most of forearm.

Angelina went natural with her make-up, and wore her long brunette hair out in a natural straight style.

Meanwhile, Brad looked dapper in a slimline black suit and open-neck white shirt.

Angelina also played presenter on the night, presenting Austrian actor Thomas Schubert with the award for the Best Actor for his film Atmen.

In the past, her involvements in Bosnia have not stopped short of her film.
The philanthropist has also visited the war torn country as a ambassador for the U.N.'s refugee agency UNHCR.

The festival was a hop, skip, and an aeroplane ride from London, where Brad and Angelina have laid their roots temporarily while the actor films post-apocalyptic horror film World War Z.

Mother-of-six Angelina has been having a ball sight-seeing and shopping with the couple's six children.

This week the Salt actress took two of her children, Shiloh, five, and Zahara, six, to The Toy Station store in Richmond, where they loaded up on a number of items, including toy currency.

A Toy Station worker told the Mail Online that Ange and her daughters arrived at the store with their bodyguard and happily browsed with other customers.

'Once the other customers had left her bodyguard politely asked if we could close the doors while they shopped,' the worker revealed.

They added: 'The girls were very well behaved and Miss Jolie was very attentive to the children. She was very nice, calm and down to earth. A very natural family.'

The worker said that Angelina bought a number of items from the store but didn't spend too much money. 'She mainly bought pocket money toys.'

The actress bought a number of cap guns and joke items such as water-squirting cameras as well as the fake money.


Applause: Brad and Ange sat in the front row at the ceremony and enthusiastically clapped other recipients


Also on the shopping list was a £25 Strawberry Fairy costume for Zahara, who is known for her love of girly clothes, while sister Shiloh is a bit of a tomboy.

As with everywhere the family ventures, a crowd soon gathered when they realised who was inside the store.

The actress' bodyguard and a community support officer helped hold the fans and photographers at bay as the smiling trio, Angelina looking chic in a beige top and skirt and matching wedges, left the store.
