Reports
Motivation for winner:
“Marta Popivoda brings multiple layers into dialogue by spanning an arc between the past and the present, mediated by a dancer’s body. In its condensed form between an experimental film and a documentary, Slet 1988 shows how powerful cinema can be in rearticulating complex, unresolved political issues. It sparked an intense discussion among us, which shows the full explosive potential of the medium when used with a strong artistic vision.”
