Awards
IMPACTE! Award for Best Feature Film
Jury's veredict:
“For its great cinematic value, for its sensitivity and for capturing –through a rich mix of formats and audiovisual resources– the struggle of Iranian women for their emancipation, connecting the feminist protests of recent decades with the ‘Woman, Life, Freedom’ movement.”
IMPACTE! Award for Human Value (ex aequo)
Jury's veredict:
“For its ability to portray, through looks and silences, the intimate and personal trauma that a young woman suffers after a sexual assault and the impacts that this generates on her environment. The Jury wants to remember, in this way, all the victims of gender-based violence and the need for their recognition.”
Jury's veredict:
“For his ability and sympathy to remind us that old age is not a farewell but another stage of life that can be lived fully, also in terms of sexual desire and freedom. The Jury has valued this more human and integrative vision of affection and sexuality, which goes beyond genders and attracts every human being.”
