The Jury’s thoughts on the film
The jury of the 34th Panorama of European Cinema, consisting of actress Maria Zorba, director Tonis Lykouresis and director Vassilis Mazomenos, congratulates all the directors and actors of the films of the competition program. At a time when the objective conditions, but also the change of the audiovisual landscape, create additional difficulties in the productions, the auteur's cinema not only survives but constantly shows new strengths. The Commission names as Best Greek Film, after a 2-1 voting, the film "Patchwork" by Petros Haralambous, for the perfection of its production and the promotion of a contemporary theme of the Cypriot, and not only, society, with the emergence of a set of exceptional actors.

The Commission also gives a special mention to Petros Sevastikoglou and his film "The Rumble of the World", for its anthropocentric look and the questions it raises about the power of the cinematic medium.

"Ma nuit" (My Night)
by Antoinette Boulat



The Jury’s thoughts on the film

The director's virtue to create the character of a young girl trapped in the sadness of her daily life, due to the tragic loss of her sister, is developing in parallel into a vivid portrait of today’s youth who wants to be recognized as unique, original and different, while troubled by existential and ecological concerns, for a dubious future. The fluid camera between realism and documentary slips from the young faces into an unpredictable harsh reality, while Paris by night is portrayed with the same intimacy of bold and fearless teenagers, between reality, cruelty, patience and solidarity. This film "dances" us to the rhythm of wise answers and smiles, but also to the kindness of strangers, who in the magical moment of a summer night, can be so close to us.

 

 


 

ΚοινούAUDIENCE PRIZE

(consisting of Athinorama Magazine Readers')

Sofia Linospori
Evi Papagiani
Eleni Tzanatou


The Audience Prize is given to the film:

"Sisterhood"
by Dina Duma


The Jury’s thoughts on the film

“Sisterhood” film, Dima Duma's first feature-length directing effort, is the choice of Athinorama Readers' Jury. Rich, topical, tough but tender at the same time, it captures with a cool look the issue of girls' sexual awakening, and the delicate balances in a society where both teenagers and adults are looking for their place. The story is presented with a characteristic economy of speech and images, and lighting that follows the psychological transitions of the characters, while the editing gives the film a rhythm that turns it into an informal thriller, with social media as a "battlefield". There are some excellent performances by (amateurs) Antoniha Belazelkoska and Mia Giraud, as well as the photography by Naum Doksevski.

 


 

34th-Panorama-poster1The Festival took place Under the Auspices and with the Financial Support of the Ministry of Culture and Sports, and with the support of City of Athens Cultural, Sport & Youth Organization (OPANDA).

Special thanks to FIPRESCI, the GREEK FILM CRITICS ASSOCIATION(PEKK), as well as to NEW YORK COLLEGE for the cooperation and synergies, but also to all the Media Sponsors of the Festival, for their valuable contribution.

See you in November 2022, for the celebration of 35 years of the Festival, hoping that this time our meeting will take place in cinema theaters!

Μέσα σε ζεστό κλίμα παρέας, παρά το κρύο που επικρατούσε χτες βράδυ, Τετάρτη 4/12, έριξε αυλαία το 32ο Πανόραμα Ευρωπαϊκού Κινηματογράφου, με την τελετή λήξης στον κινηματογράφο Τριανόν και το πάρτυ που ακολούθησε, στο bar Matchpoint.

Στην τελετή, με οικοδεσπότη, όπως πάντα, τον Διευθυντή του Φεστιβάλ, Νίνο Φένεκ Μικελίδη, και παρουσία πολλών ανθρώπων του κινηματογράφου, απονεμήθηκαν τα τιμητικά βραβεία, καθώς και τα βραβεία του Διαγωνιστικού Τμήματος, από τις 4 επιτροπές της φετινής διοργάνωσης, ενώ ακολούθησε η προβολή, σε πανελλαδική πρεμιέρα, της ταινίας της Haifaa Al Mansour “The Perfect Candidate” (Σαουδική Αραβία).
Ο Νίνος Μικελίδης, αφού έκανε μια ανασκόπηση του φετινού φεστιβάλ, αναφερόμενος στα μεγάλα αφιερώματα, τους καλεσμένους και τις πρεμιέρες της διοργάνωσης, ευχαρίστησε θερμά όλους τους φορείς, τους υποστηρικτές και τους χορηγούς επικοινωνίας
της 32ης διοργάνωσης, ενώ στο τέλος της τελετής, ευχήθηκε να εξασφαλιστούν και την επόμενη χρονιά οι πόροι (πράγμα όλο και πιο δύσκολο, όπως ανέφερε χαρακτηριστικά), ώστε το φεστιβάλ να γιορτάσει το 2020 τα 33α γενέθλιά του!

Αναλυτικά τα βραβεία του φεστιβάλ, με τη σειρά που απονεμήθηκαν:

ΒΡΑΒΕΙΑ ΔΙΑΓΩΝΙΣΤΙΚΟΥ ΤΜΗΜΑΤΟΣ

ΒΡΑΒΕΙΟ ΕΠΙΤΡΟΠΗΣ ΚΟΙΝΟΥ
αποτελούμενης από αναγνώστες του περιοδικού ΑΘΗΝΟΡΑΜΑ
(Μέλη: Ιωσηφίνα Κοντέση, Στέλιος Πετρουλάκης & Σπύρος Χειμωνάκης)

Το βραβείο απονεμήθηκε στην ταινία
STITCHES | Σερβία | 105’
Σκηνοθεσία: Miroslav Terzic | Sales: Cercamon

Το σκεπτικό της απόφασης:
Εμείς, ως η κριτική επιτροπή των αναγνωστών του περιοδικού «Αθηνόραμα», επιλέξαμε τη σερβική ταινία “Stitches | Ράμματα” , του Μίροσλαβ Τέρζιτς, η οποία θίγει το ζήτημα  της εμπορίας βρεφών, που μάστιζε τη χώρα τη δεκαετία του ’90, αμέσως μετά τον εμφύλιο πόλεμο και το διαμελισμό της πρώην Γιουγκοσλαβίας. Πέρα από το σενάριο και τον σκηνοθετικό χειρισμό, μας εντυπωσίασε η έξοχη ερμηνεία της πρωταγωνίστριας και η φωτογραφία, η οποία προβάλλει με εξαιρετικό τρόπο τα «ράμματα» στις πληγές του μετεμφυλιακού Βελιγραδίου, που δεν έχουν επουλωθεί 20 χρόνια μετά.

---------------------------------

ΒΡΑΒΕΙΟ ΕΠΙΤΡΟΠΗΣ ΠΕΚΚ
Επιτροπή μελών της Πανελλήνιας ‘Ενωσης Κριτικών Κινηματογράφου
(Γεράσιμος Βάκρος, Δημήτρης Κολιοδήμος & Θόδωρος Σούμας)

Το βραβείο απονεμήθηκε στην ταινία
Η ΑΝΑΚΡΙΣΗ / The Interrogation | Ελλάδα | 80’
Σκηνοθεσία: Παναγιώτης Πορτοκαλάκης | Sales: Viewmaster Films

Το σκεπτικό της απόφασης:
Το βραβείο της Πανελλήνιας Ένωσης Κριτικών Κινηματογράφου απονέμεται στην ταινία Η ΑΝΑΚΡΙΣΗ, του Παναγιώτη Πορτοκαλάκη, για την εύστοχη και πειστική αναμόχλευση του κοντινού παρελθόντος της χώρας μας, που αποδίδεται με επαγγελματική επιδεξιότητα, αφηγηματική οικονομία και σκηνοθετική άνεση, μέσω δύο καλά σκιαγραφημένων σημερινών χαρακτήρων – μιας οργισμένης νεαρής αντιεξουσιάστριας και του συμβιβασμένου αριστερού, βασανισμένου από τη χούντα πατέρα της.

---------------------------------

ΒΡΑΒΕΙΟ FIPRESCI – ΘΟΔΩΡΟΣ ΑΓΓΕΛΟΠΟΥΛΟΣ
Επιτροπή μελών της Διεθνούς Ομοσπονδίας Κριτικών Κινηματογράφου (FIPRESCI)
Τάσος Γουδέλης, Vecdi Sayar (Τουρκία), Alena Sycheva (Ρωσία)

Το βραβείο απονεμήθηκε στην ταινία
PASSED BY CENSOR | Τουρκία, Γερμανία, Γαλλία | 96’
Σκηνοθεσία: Serhat Karaaslan | Sales: Bac Films

Το σκεπτικό της απόφασης:
Τα μέλη της επιτροπής της FIPRESCI του 32ου Πανοράματος Ευρωπαϊκού Κινηματογράφου αποφάσισαν να απονείμουν το βραβείο ΘΟΔΩΡΟΣ ΑΓΓΕΛΟΠΟΥΛΟΣ στην Τουρκο-Γαλλο-Γερμανική συμπαραγωγή με τίτλο "Görülmüştür" (Passed by Censor). Η ταινία αντανακλά, με λεπτό, διακριτικό τρόπο τα κοινωνικά και διανοητικά ζητήματα ενός αξιωματικού των φυλακών, που ελέγχει την αλληλογραφία των κρατουμένων. Ασκώντας κριτική στο σύστημα φυλακών της Τουρκίας, η ταινία παράλληλα εστιάζει στη σχέση μεταξύ μύθου και πραγματικότητας και μεταφέρει πειστικά στο θεατή την αναζήτηση του ήρωα για δικαιοσύνη καθώς και τα ερωτικά του συναισθήματα. Ο σκηνοθέτης  Serhat Karaaslan χειρίζεται το στοιχείο της μεταφοράς , συνδέοντας την έννοια της λογοκρισίας με τις μεθόδους δημιουργικής γραφής που διδάχθηκε.

Για την ευαίσθητη και διεισδυτική προσέγγιση σε μία απ' τις πιο τραγικές συνέπειες του εμφυλίου στην πρώην Γιουγκοσλαβία, την εξαπάτηση των γονέων και την αρπαγή των φυσικών παιδιών τους.

ΒΡΑΒΕΙΟ ΞΕΝΗΣ ΤΑΙΝΙΑΣ
Απονεμήθηκε στην ταινία PASSED BY CENSOR

Για το πώς ο κεντρικός χαρακτήρας αντιλαμβάνεται την υπάρχουσα πραγματικότητα, η οποία επιδέχεται πολλά επίπεδα «ανάγνωσης», άρτια ενορχηστρωμένη από τον σκηνοθέτη. Για μία ιστορία, επίσης, που αναγάγει το προσωπικό δράμα του ήρωα σε συλλογικό, για το καθεστώς λογοκρισίας στις τουρκικές φυλακές και για το πατριαρχικό μοντέλο της τουρκικής οικογένειας.

ΒΡΑΒΕΙΟ ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗΣ ΤΑΙΝΙΑΣ
Απονεμήθηκε στην ταινία Η ΑΝΑΚΡΙΣΗ
