In Bloom
Grzeli nateli dgeebi
Simon Groß, Nana Ekvtimishvili
This year's CICAE Forum jury choose a film that's very strong on both a cinematic and political level. It tells a universal and personal story that plays to a background full of violence. The production design is marvellous and the two young main actresses pulled us in their story and did not let us go, untill this very moment.

Baby Blues
Bejbi blues
Katarzyna Rosłaniec
In this film we were completely unprepared for the extreme way the story unfolds. Its bold editing style, colorful cinematography and innovative direction gave the film great dynamism. The film showed us strong and complex characters who often behaved in contradictory ways. These teenagers seem to be unable to acknowledge their mistakes and take responsibility for them. They are caught between the desire for freedom and the duties of being a young parent.

The Broken Circle Breakdown
Felix van Groeningen
Felix van Groeningen is a real filmmaker. This is a beautiful and original way of looking at a mother and father's relationship with their terminally sick daughter. We especially liked the cinematography, the non-linear structure of the story, and the fact that he avoids easy emotional manipulation while dealing with a tough subject. The music from the parents' bluegrass band is not just the soundtrack but a source of energy and hope for everyone. The clear message is that we must invest in scientific research and not allow religion or politics to interfere.
