Commendation of the Ecumenical Jury, Berlin 1994 (Forum)

The film displays formal rigour and opens up the realities of new spheres for cinematical portrayal. SATANTANGO is an alarming depiction of the disintegration of social and moral orders: it is also a meditation on time, transience, hope and destruction, which, in the context of creation and apocalypse, succeeds in attaining a metaphysical dimension.
