2018 – XII Edition

Best short film

Retouch

by Kaveh Mazaheri

Iran | 2017 | Fiction | 19’25”

Reason:

The short film wisely weave, in a rigorous canvas of the staging, the threads of a solid narration, a great interpretation and direction of the actors and a clean and coherent photograph, at the service of a ruthless story that becomes the metaphor of cinema.

Best director

Not Yet

by Arian Vazirdaftair

Iran | 2016 | Fiction | 14’54”

Reason:

Not Yet, in a few minutes, crystallizes with a form perfectly adhering to its content as its natural and irreplaceable epidermis, a simple and universal story, without forgetting the empathy of the characters and – above all – great directorial control.

SPECIAL MENTION / MENZIONE SPECIALE  

Solenne Triduo Dei Morti

by Andrea Grasselli

Italy | 2015 | Documentary | 13.49

The film by Andrea Grasselli portrays the construction of a large scaffolding of ancient tradition, making the shooted event, unchanged over time, coincide with the silent and non-didactic story of a community, moving with consistency and competence between real and spiritual.
