After winning at Rotterdam IFF, Göteborg FF and Crossing Europe, we are proud to announce that the Best Nordic Documentary Award of Oslo Pix goes to Transnsitra by Anna Eborn. The Jury statement is:
(Norwegian)”Vinneren av Oslo Grand Pix Nordisk Dokumentar går til en film som er et helhetlig og balansert stykke dokumentarkunst. Subtilt bygget opp med delikat kinematografi, har filmen en hypersensitiv visjon om å portrettere unge mennesker uten retning – i et øde område i Øst-Europa. Spesielt klarer filmens originale motiv – en sensuell tenåringsjente som omgir seg med flere jevnaldrende gutter – å skape en atmosfære der naturlig kroppslig nærhet og pulserende intensitet står i motsetning til den gråtunge klisjéen som ofte preger øst-europeisk realisme.”
Thank you Oslo Pix and huge congratulations to Anna Eborn and the team!
After winning the Dragon Award of Best Nordic Documentary at Göteborg FF, the VPRO Award at Rotterdam FF and being part of CPH:DOX, Visions du Réel, Docville among others, Transnistra is now in theaters all over Sweden with Folkets Bio. Check out here the next stops of the film.
We are extremely glad to have one of the film’s main character Tolya with us for the first screenings in Stockholm, Göteborg, Uppsala and Västerås.
We are honored and thrilled with the last wins of Hamada: Tempo Award at Tempo Documentary Film Festival, Best First Film (ex-aequo) & Young Jury Award at Cinéma du Réel.
So far, Hamada has been screened in nearly 20 festivals around the world and is hitting the Swedish theaters since March.
Congratulations to director Eloy Dominguez Serén and the whole team!
This has been an overwhelming week for Momento: Anna’s Eborn Transnistra won the Dragon Award for Best Nordic Documentary at Göteborg Film Festival a few days after winning the VPRO Big Screen Award at Rotterdam IFF!
Thank you to both Jurys and all our partners and big congratulations to director Anna Eborn and the whole team. Next stop for the film is Tempo Film Festival before the Swedish theatrical release this April 17.
Hugs and respect to director Anna Eborn who has been struggling with smuggling in 16 mm film rolls, dealing with secret agents and caring with love and concern for this group of young friends! And of course to the stars of the movie; Tanya, Tolya, Vanya, Denis, Dima, Burulya and the whole team from Sweden, Denmark and Belgium.
