Silver Eye Award for the best short documentary in the East Silver Market goes to Mohammed Almughanni for his film Son of the Streets. The Jury, comprised of Christine Camdessus (FIPADOC Festival Director), Veronika Janatková (DokuBaku Co-founder & Programmer) and Diana Tabakov (Doc Alliance Executive Derector), pointed out in the statement: "How unwelcome can one be in this world? A very unique connection with characters allows the director to unfold the nature of Khodor's vital dilemna in a vivid and profoundly memorable way. The vigorous cinematic experience engraves in the viewer the complex reality of daily life in a camp."
The Jury has decided to give Special Mention to Hanna Hovitie's film To Feather, to Wither: "For outstanding directing skills that have given life to the deceased. The director has created a tender portrait of the poetics of the cycle of life."
Congratulations!
