hrvaško: Kinematografija bivše Jugoslavije raspala se jednim tragičnim ratom. Prvi koji su uspostavili mostove između novonastalih država bili su sineasti. Ovaj film predstavlja sintezu skoro tridesetogodišnje saradnje kinematografija u takozvanom regionu. Film “Marko” svojom humanom porukom i vrhunskom realizacijom otvara nove prostore za kinematoografsku saradnju na prostorima bivše Jugoslavije.
Ethics and human rights award
The Jury’s Special Prize for groundbreaking cultural change goes to the director of Lada Kamenski, Sara Hribar for smashing the chauvinistic cultural hegemony in Balkan films. In this festival of films from Balkan countries most of the films, include women solely as sex objects or aunty-granny types, and they are always secondary characters.
Lada Kamenski is refreshingly breaking away from the reigning man’s world,and stereotypical views of women. One looks forward to seeing the future steps, from this debuting filmmaker.
Za odločno in zrelo režijo, s katero zgradi intriganten pogled na sodobno življenje in ustvari nepozabljive filmske like.
For the cleverly formulated sort telling and the outstanding performance of the main character.
