From among 20 titles, being in the international competition, the jury awarded the first prize, Golden Lion, for the Polish short film “MC. Man of vinyl” by Bartosz Warwas. This fiction is produced by the Polish National Film School in Łódź and shows the story of life of one man to whom so many never have owed so much, without whom the Berlin Wall would have never fallen, the Iron Curtain would have never been torn down or even the trousers would have never dropped.
In addition to this, the third prize, Brown Lion, came to Jenifer Malmqvist, also a student of Polish National Film School, for her short fiction “Birthday” – the film about close, however, quite complicated relationship between two young women.
