Statement by the jury:
“The jury decision has been taken in consideration all aspects
of film making starting from a good and clear script directed
and acted in precise way.
The filmakers take us on a journey behind the scenes of a
creative process and conflicts of interest and how to resolve
them. The result indulges the short form of storytelling to the
point.”
