2019 Winners & Shortlists

Write a short summary of what happens in the film.

A Cosmolite falls upon hard times with a change in hands, as it finds itself in a cold anonymous city, with a gentleman who has clearly seen better times. We follow the two in a melancholic story as time and life do their best to wear them down.

Tell the jury anything relevant about the cinematography.

This film was shot in Kiev around the beginning of winter. Our DP did away with any sort of lights and decided to use only natural light. Using an Alexa Mini and a steadicam, we shot this film for three days in the busiest streets and the narrow alleys of Kiev.
