Albatrosses 2010 awarded
Laureates of the 3. Amateur Films Review Albatrosses are
annouced. ‘Lustro’, ‘Nie chcę!’ and ‘Boisko‘ concern great problems of
young people.
Tempestuous generation gaps, difficult relationships with parents, moral ambiguilty, love, friendship, treason, competition and everything that a young filmmaker knows best were the themes of feature and documentary shorts submitted to the Review.
On 8 August in Multikino in Gdynia nominated films were screened. Award ceremony was hosted by Tomasz Żółtowski. The screening room was bursting in the seams. Among incredibly numerous audience directors, actors, music makers, stage designers, artistic supervisors and many more were present.
