JURY STATEMENT
This is an incredibly intense film, full of suspense from the very beginning. The technically outstanding Film is a take on one of the most important aspects of international species protection– wildlife crimes. The topic is unveiled like a thriller, with its covert research and precise camerawork, that are very well implemented. Although its cinematic staging leaves little room for personal interpretation, the matter is conveyed with utmost honesty and credibility.
