Wiz-Art 2014 Grand Prix
KILLING AUNTIE, dir. Mateusz Głowacki Killing Auntie performs a perfect balance between an unrealistic story and the convincing way of telling it. Although Killing Auntie has very good directing, editing and comic timing, it is difficult to describe. You just have to watch it! https://vimeo.com/101859171
Best Ukrainian Film
THE GUM, dir. Olha Makarchuk The Jury has to admit that being a gum for 8 minutes seems to be more interesting then being a person.
Best Script
COUNTERPART, dir. Adrian Sitaru An unusual way of describing a well-known problem in a sexual relationship with humor and realism.
Best Director
WHERE WE ARE, dir. Ilker Çatak We’re guided through a classic story with a firm direction that leads us to a delicate point where the ego of a mother becomes less important than the love for her daughter.
Best Cinematography
HARVEST, dir. Chaja Hertog and Nir Nadler A visually funny and absurd way of describing the horrors of terror. https://vimeo.com/101861752
