The Role The jury commented both winners as "outstanding performers who convince us by being more than just brilliant actors. For whom it is not enough to slip into different characters but to turn into a completely different life just to find out that there is no way back."

Maria Reinup "A well-built and focused film gem opening up slowly, but overwhelming by the last frame. A universal call for humanity, and reflection on the choices we make."
Even Hafnor "A brilliant depiction of an error in the system, shattering the foundations of society. With simple and stripped down script and flawless implementation, this smart little movie inspires thought on a wide spectrum. A documentary approach with a hidden agenda keeps viewers and participants unbiased."

Chema García Ibarra "This film draws you into its compelling world and shares the story of a dutiful mother, wife and neighbour who manages to fulfil her biggest dream - reaching for space and beyond. The director's attention to detail, alongside the carefully composed framing and sparse storytelling, creates an almost perfect short film with its own unique universe."

Gabriel Gauchet "A story told twice from two very different perspectives, revealing how a highly streamlined social system can turn one human being into a desperate, nervous wreck and another into a heartless, bureaucratic avenger. The director brings out the best in his actors, mastering the pace and tempo necessary to grip and keep the audience. Through its contemporary setting and believable plot, this short thriller should spark intense discussions about the state of our society and the reality we have created."
Jan Erik Nõgisto, Katrin Maymik "A yearning for love and intimacy revealed in an everyday story with well-developed characters and dreamy atmosphere. It takes exactly the time that it needs. Natural and delicate acting builds beautiful and fragile tension."
