The winner of the Grand Prix of Cinema City Festival, American director Lance Hammer decided to give a half of the 15,000 dollars award to SOS Children's Village “Dr. Milorad Pavlović“ in Sremska Kamenica. “I am sure that the value and maybe the measure of art is its ability to heal spiritual wounds. And while, I hope, Ballast reaches that potential in moments, SOS Children's Village obviously performs that feat every day”, said the director in the letter where he thanked for the award.

Talking to Marija Jocic
interview
Through a short conversation with Marija Jocić, the PR of the festival, we found out some of her impressions of the eight-day film fantasy which truly turned Novi Sad into a cinema and put it among the most important world film and cultural centres.

- Marija, are you satisfied with the realization of the festival? And did the eight-day Cinema City’s path through the world of film go as planned?

During eight days of the festival, Novi Sad actually became a cinema-city, and this is what tells us, the organizers, that everything went perfectly well. We didn’t have any major problems or changes during the festival.

Award by FIRPRESCI Serbian Branch Jury
info

FIRPRESCI Serbian Branch Jury consisting of Dejan Ognjanović (chairman, Popboks), Dejan Petrović (3rd program of Radio Beograd) and Slobodan Radosavljević (3rd program of Radio Beograd) unanimously brought the decision to give the award to Swedish horror-drama Låt den rätte komma in.
The award is given for the engagement in widening of genre expression and successful overcoming the distinction between genre and artistic film. Director Tomas Alfredson achieved a balance between Hollywood and European approach and gave an author and intimate film that consolidates the best from both worlds. This genre story gives subtle, carefully toned message of friendship that transcends everything else.
