The INTERFILM jury awards its prize to a movie that portrays different stages of grief condensed in a single day, while stressing how important it is to share it within a community, to look out for each other and to find your neighbour where you least expect it. The film not only tells a relevant story in a visually impressive way, but also shows how a church can make you fly.
