FORADCAMP 2016 AWARD LIST

These are the award winners of ForadCamp 2016, 5th Nature and Cinema Exhibition.

  • Foradcamp 2016 Best Documentary Jury Award: Nobody dies here, by Simon Panay. (France, 2016, 23 min). The Jury, composed by Elisabet Prandi, Carme Mayugo and Jordi Morató, awarded the film because «It makes a very careful treatment of such a difficult issue as gold mining, from a strong ethical position. Each of the characters is very well located in the narration and the director develops several issues that allow him to make the portrait of place. It’s a respectful look at the situation of Africa, and all the tiny stories treated resume universal issues such as the fact to dream about the possibility one day of a sudden change in your humble situation, or even the daily confrontation with death. The scene of the interview with the man in charge of the exploitation of the gold mine it’s wonderful». The award is endowed with 300 €.
