The Vienna International Film Festival: the winners
After seeing the biggest loser of the festival, "Red Shirley, here are the winners. Among the contenders for our jury towards the end were the aforementioned "Littlerock" and also "Marwencol," the great documentary that came out here in Boston back in April in the Independent Film Festival. The latter did win the "Der Standard" readers jury award but the FIPRESCI prize went to that Hungarian upstart, "Periferic," which meant that when I made the presentation at the awards ceremony I had a lot of difficult words to pronounce.
