International Competition

Best Feature Film : THE BURITI FLOWER byJoão Salaviza, Renée Nader Messora

Motivation: From the very first scene, this film enchanted us. We immersed ourselves in the Krahô community, loving, suffering, dreaming with them, and their loss and struggle were made our own. All the beauty and horror of the world are masterfully encapsulated in this film. Not only politically relevant today, it is a timeless film that shows us the eternal repetition of violence and predation.

Best Medium-length Film: STAND OUT OF MY SUNLIGHT by Messaline Raverdy

Motivation: Through a carefully crafted and edited film, the director has transported us into the rich inner world of her friend Joseph, capturing the beauty in the chaos. The mutual love and admiration they share warmed us deeply.

Best Short Film: EVER SINCE, I HAVE BEEN FLYING by Aylin Gökmen

Motivation: We were very impressed by the protagonist's courage to bare his vulnerability and impressed by the director's ability to treat it with a cinematic and poetic language. In a perfect and concise manner, this film unveils the inconceivable violence she has suffered with a sensitivity, tenderness and endless beauty that left us speechless.

"Gian Paolo Paoli" Targa for Best Anthropological Film: ZINZINDURRUNKARRATZ by Oskar Alegria

Motivation: With a bold cinematic proposal, the director evokes from the past the stories, gestures, sounds, and traditions of the community to which he and his family belong; the result is a very personal and moving anthropology.

Italian Competition

Best Italian Documentary : VISTA MARE by Julia Gutweniger, Florian Kofler

Motivazione: Adottando un punto di vista insolito su una realtà sotto gli occhi di tutti, gli autori riescono a rivelare il lato grottesco e paradossale di un mondo che sotto il sole appare divertimento ed emozione. Un mondo che si rivela qui come un meccanismo freddo e millimetrico che ingabbia, illude, e risulta alla fine totalizzante. Uno sguardo asettico e analitico che non si dimentica, anche per la sua feroce ironia.
