Jury statement: "A gripping tale of transformative yearning, feminine friendship, and startling brutality. The film is evocatively shot, sensitively scripted, and anchored by a heartbreaking performance by Anna Dzieduszycka".
- Best Student Fiction Film – IN THE PALACE Short Film Festival, Bulgaria
Jury statement: “As a Jury we were all in agreement that this film highlighted a filmmaker in total control of his craft. It was brave, visceral and authentic, a masterclass in filmmaking and storytelling. This film is brilliantly written and performed with each and every character flawed in their own unique way. The cinematography was subtle yet powerful, placing you right in the POV of the lead character. It is thought provoking, poetic and powerful, leaving you in total awe of the film".
