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" ) );
}
