Unseen
Directed by:
1996

The jury awards the documentary "Nespatrené" for the simple way in which this film, full of hope and love, shows that it is not the social achievement or ability and skill which determine the dignity of man but the endeavour to actively develop spiritual values both for the individual and for the human community as a whole.
