Berlinale: Chiang Wei Liang wins Audi Short Film Award
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
At the 66th Berlin International #film Festival, Singaporean director #chiangweiliang won the #audi Short #film Award with his #film “Jin zhi xia mao” (“Anchorage Prohibited”). The award carries a € 20,000 prize. The jury honored the politically-engaged artistic signature of the director with the award in the #berlinale Shorts category. The #audi #berlinale Lounge was again favored by cinema-goers, this year setting a new record of more than 7,200 visitors. Long queues in front of the entrance testified to the audience’s great interest in the events of the #berlinale Open House supporting program and the exclusive view of the red carpet.
25 films from 21 countries competed for the prize in the #berlinale Shorts section at the 66th #berlinale. The #audi Short #film Award worth € 20,000 was again presented this year along with the Golden and Silver Bears. The international short #film jury, consisting of the curator and director of the Sharjah Biennial Sheikha Hoor Al-Qasimi from the United Arab Emirates, the Greek curator and author Katerina Gregos and the Israeli filmmaker Avi Mograbi, placed particular emphasis on artistic design and ideas of innovation. Singaporean director #chiangweiliang was able to impress the jury with his #film “Jin zhi xia mao”.
With the #audi Short #film Award, #audi supports the experimental movie experience without formal restrictions. Whether in black-and-white or color, whether feature #film, documentary, experimental or animated movie: the #berlinale Shorts boast great variety. All contributions merely share the same length of no more than 30 minutes. “Every single short #film is a small work of art, truly one-of-a-kind,” says Jason Lusty, Head of Marketing Germany at AUDI AG. “Participants are often on a very tight budget. With our prize, we want to encourage the production of more great films because, for us, short films are not niche but the future,” says Lusty.
At the awards ceremony, Lusty drew his first conclusions: “My personal highlight was to see Daniel Brühl’s beaming eyes after he arrived on the red carpet at the opening gala in a driverless #audi A8 L W12. The atmosphere in the #audi #berlinale Lounge was also fantastic.” Along with the #berlinale Open House talk show, the #berlinale Lounge Nights featuring celebrity musicians and DJs, such as Jasmin Tabatabai, Meret Becker, Tom Schilling and Frederick Lau, were extremely well received. More than 7,200 guests visited the #berlinale Open House or #berlinale Lounge Nights events. Accompanied by good music and cold drinks, they ended their #berlinale evening on a relaxing note by the red carpet.
“I'm happy about the cooperation with #audi, and the #audi #berlinale Lounge fills a major gap. This can be clearly seen in how fast and well it was received. This is very unusual in Berlin. This kind of thing usually takes around ten years. And the #berlinale Open House program was even more intense this year. #berlinale visitors love gathering in the #audi #berlinale Lounge, having a discussion and talking to each other. This is communication and it also holds true of the #berlinale,” says Dieter Kosslick, Director of the Berlin International #film Festival.
