1st Prize: “Paradise – Three Journeys In This World”
Director: Elina Hirvonen from Finland.

Jury Comments: “Three Journeys …” we chose it as a first prize because this film confronts us with the current problem of illegal immigrants.

It orchestrates their pain, poverty, and distress into the form of a cinematographic poem.

2nd Prize: “The Nuclear Come Back” from New Zealand,
Director: Justin Pemberton.

The Nuclear Come Back gives us a sharp and sober access to a complicated and controversial issue. It very clearly contrasts the revival of the nuclear power plants that are sold to us by the nuclear industry as a solution for the climate change versus the costs and dangers of this technology that will last for 100.000 years.

Special Mention for the film “Black River”
Director: Surendra Manan from India.

Black River reveals how religious energy can be transcended into action for saving the natural recourses people live on.

Special Mention for the film “Uncle Mitte”
Director: Wijnand van Ginkel from the Netherlands.

A film that arrives to a silent eloquence using the cinematographic tools to capture moments of human life in the middle of the wilderness without manipulating the scenery.
