Re tian wu hou by Wenqian Zhang
Depicting the world, especially the one we live in, is no longer a question of general views. Just as the map can’t represent the world, and when it does, we know the tragic consequences of that attempt. Cinema must aspire to show what does not fit on the map. All that exceeds the frame. Sometimes, listening, just for a while, is enough to understand that the world is made up of infinite overlapping layers, hundreds of simultaneous details, hidden sensibilities and subtle emotions. For its elegance and delicacy, and the extreme care shown to invite us to observe and listen to a small portion of the world, this jury has decided to award with the Silver Bear Jury Prize the film Re tian wu hou by Wenqian Zhang.
Xia Wu Guo Qu Le Yi Ban by Zhang Dalei
“A family visit turns into a slow-paced loving farewell between a grandfather and his grandson. The intricately woven family dynamics and superb acting immerse us in a genuine moment in their lives. The superbly crafted mise-en-scène feels natural and unobtrusive. In Xia Wu Guo Qu Le Yi Ban (Day Is Done), Zhang Dalei’s rich cinematic language builds a sensitive family portrait that transcends the duration of the short form.”
