Roman Polanski Film Tribute In Switzerland

Roman Polanski is being honored in Switzerland as the subject of a film tribute by the Swiss Film Archive. They have invited critics and experts to come and talk about Polanski’s work.
The event organizers have explicitly stated that the tribute will be about the director’s work and not his current state of affairs.
So nobody thinks something like this is a bit ill-timed or inappropriate considering the man is currently fighting extradition to the US to face sentencing for a child rape charge?
Not to mention that he won’t even be able to attend?
You know, because he’s in JAIL!
