Reports
According to our jury, the winning film received the award “for its wild imagination, artistic mastery and absolute belief in all the possibilities of cinema. Bertrand Mandico created a colorful fantasmagoria, a bold cosmogony, an organic handmade western and a whole new frontier for our dreams from scratch. It’s a love letter to a large scope of past cinema (from John Ford to Sixties sci-fi) and a glimpse to the future, a utopia which is not confined to the limits of narrative cinema, genres and genders”.
