Special Prize at Tampere Film Festival!
Our film Traffic Jam was awarded the Special Prize (2nd prize + 1500€!!) in the category for films under 30 minutes at Tampere Film Festival. The jury gave the following motivation:
A fragment of the daily lives of two people in the city gives us their full portrait. The directors are using the short form to tell what is necessary – and not more.
We are of course very happy about this, it feels like we've won an Oscar. Hopefully this is only the beginning. You see, awards are like a drug. And the money ... well let's just say it does help.
