you could define a table with this data:
festival | filmid
------------------------------------------
1979 | 102
1979 | 103
1979 | 104
1980 | 258
1980 | 369
1980 | 489
1980 | 568
with a query like this:
select filmid from films where festival = '1980'
and use a loop like this to generate an array
Vector films = new Vector();
while ( rs.next() )
{
films.add ( rs.getString ( "filmid" ) );
}
