$2000 prize

«Expedition 49» / dir. Alisa Kovalenko

The project Expedition 49 has been awarded the Current Time TV Post-production Award for its depiction of the fragile world of children whose peaceful lives teeter on the edge of an abyss symbolised by encroaching artillery fire. The war is getting closer and closer, but the children refuse to give up their dreams of an adventurous expedition to the Himalayas.

Florian’s Witnesses / dir. Oleksiy Radynski

EAST SILVER CARAVAN AWARD

Fragments of Ice / dir. Maria Stoianova

We would like to honour a project that touched us with an unusual story about the crucial historical events defining modern Europe from an unexpected perspective. From the point of view of an ordinary family, a radical change unfolds. The world as they knew it disappeared and new horizons opened. A taste of the West, a brand-new world and the memory of it caught on the VHS tapes of one particular family archive. We would like to give the East Silver Caravan Award to Fragments of Ice by Maria Stoianova.

Expedition 49 / dir. Alisa Kovalenko

We are very curious how the imminent twist will influence the lives of the heroes and what it will bring to the narrative layers of the film.
