Winners

Golden Eye for Best Feature Film

Goes to Granny Project, by Bálint Révész.

For delivering different perspectives of historic truth without bumping into clichés, for its deep impact on the audience, for its ability to balance on the thin boundary between depth and surface, young and old, structure and individual, East and West.

Silver Eye for Best Visual Storytelling

Goes to Speak So I Can See You, by Marija Stojnić.

For giving a body to an immaterial being (Radio Belgrade), for presenting the transition from a post-Communist to a capitalist society through means of the metaphor, for celebrating the potential of the human being.

Audience Award

Goes to Uncle Honker, by Cash Robinson.
