WEBWIRE – Friday, August 18, 2023
The Eurimages Co-production Development Award (20,000 euros) was announced at the closing ceremony of the CineLink Industry Days organised as part of the 29th Sarajevo Film Festival. The award went to the project MY MOTHER, THE MONSTER, to be directed by Olivr Rudolf and produced by the Hungarian company Kino Alfa. The jury, consisting of Labina Mitevska (Sisters&Brother Mitevski), Oliver Neumann (FreibeuterFilm GmbH) and Eleni Chandrinou, the Greek national representative at Eurimages, unanimously decided to reward a strong director with a unique vision, who treats his characters with kindness and warmth and brings to light the abyss of their soul. More information on the Festival website.
The next Eurimages Award for Co-Production Development will be presented at the Junior Co-Production Market to be held in Amsterdam during the Cinekid for Professionals event on 24-27 October 2023.
