Cet article est disponible en anglais.
The 26th edition of the Festival of Slovenian Film ended with something of a surprise at the awards ceremony that took place at the Portorose Auditorium on the evening of Sunday 8 October. The reason is that the overall Vesna Award for Best Feature-length Film (of any type) went to a modestly budgeted experimental documentary essay, Tomaž Grom’s Don’t Think It Will Ever Pass, over some other, more prominent films that might have been seen as the favourites for the prizes. On top of the main award, Grom was awarded one more Vesna, for Best Original Music, for the same film.
In terms of the number of awards, the clear winner was Marko Šantić’s fiction feature Wake Me [+lire aussi :

Other films that won multiple gongs were Janez Burger’s Observing [+lire aussi :
