For the second year in a row, Norwegian director Izer Aliu has won the Golden Chair – the top prize – at the Norwegian Short Film Festival in Grimstad, which ends today (17 June).

“Aliu’s The Good Life, Over There demonstrates the art of not giving away too much or too little. With a brilliant use of dialogue, expert acting and assured instruction, we are surprised and entertained by a voice we look forward to hearing more from,” said the jury at Sunday’s ceremony in Grimstad’s Culture House.

Last year, Aliu’s graduation film from the Norwegian Film School, To Guard a Mountain, received the first prize and added, among others, an Amanda – Norway’s national film prize – to its kudos. And the jury will certainly hear more from him: Aliu is currently in post-production with his feature debut, Hunting Flies.

Fifty-four Norwegian shorts, 23 international shorts, 11 Norwegian documentaries and 20 music videos were screened in the festival programme, where Dutch director Sam de Jong’s Marc Jacobs came first in the international competition. Special focuses covered Women’s Stories and French author Marguerite Duras.
