Winner of an Honorable Mention at ASFC2013 (Made in 1 week!) Director: Rares-Mihnea Hantiu From: Arad, Romania Topics: "Banana" and "Illusion" "This is a film that has a real point to make and does so effectively with excellent production values. Though only about four min. long, it might have been even more economical in its storytelling if some of the shots simply transporting the main character from one place to another were left out. An honorable mention goes to Rares-Mihnea Hantiu for tHIS IS nOT a bANANA" - The ASFC2013 jury

Winner of the Talent Prize at ASFC2013 (Made in 1 week!) Made by: Rasmus Reimer Larsen, Tine Poulsen & Jonathan Langelund From: Aarhus, Denmark Based on the topics: "Life" and "Illusion" "In the framework of a fictive documentary, you tell a story about the confusion and frustration of a young father and his politically incorrect feelings. Very courageously you describe the fear and the anger in a way we have not seen before. The story is clear and engaging and the documentary visual setting is 'clean'. The acting of this not likeable character is strong. We will never forget this young man's pain- and will wonder what happens, once the baby is there.The talent prize goes to "Rasmus & maven". We look forward to seeing how you and your team will use your talent for storytelling in a future project." - The ASFC2013 Jury

Winner of the Grand Prize at ASFC2013 (Made in 1 week!) Made by: Lotte Kamphuis (NL), Léo Gack (FR) & Zöe Robertson (CA) Participating from: Aarhus, Denmark. Based on the topics: "Rain" and "Illusion" "Under four min. in running time ("less is more"), the winning film tells its story with admirable simplicity, bringing the viewer inside the experience of the one and only character appearing in this portrait film. The production values are high and invariably in the service of a moving and memorable story in which nothing is allowed to distract us from the essentials. The viewer is left feeling real identification with and understanding of the person whose portrait is evoked so eloquently in this film. During the jury's deliberations, there was unanimous agreement from the start -- though we wondered about the appropriateness of the film's title -- that the Grand Prize should go to Lotte Kamphuis for GATHERING."
