Jury Statement:
We, the FIPRESCI jury, award the FIPRESCI prize to Blue Heron by Sophy Romvari, a film that deals with mental health issues through an astonishing cinematography that deconstructs chronology in a very subtle, painful, and emotional way. We particularly liked the way it shows how an undiagnosed teenage pathology affects a family as a whole – and how cinema allows to handle grief.
