Reports
The FIPRESCI jury followed the program “Tierres In Trance” and awarded two prizes.
Best Film: The Trail Left by Time.
Motivation: “For a mesmerizing visual film experience that transcends the boundaries between documentary realism and fictional storytelling, seamlessly weaving a narrative in which pictorial elements and subjective memory unfold as transformative elements to capture the tradition and legacy of a saga passed down through generations.”
Best Director: María Aparicio.
Motivation: “For a film that explores with deeply moving sensitivity the grieving process following the tragic loss of a filmmaker friend. Tinged with unspeakable melancholy, it transcends the simple narrative of bereavement by revealing the profound links between artistic creation, cinema and memory.”
