Barcelona Independent Film FestivalL'Alternativa Awards

17th edition of l'Alternativa! the Barcelona Independent Film FestivalL'Alternativa Awards 2010
The festival received 2020 films from 79 countries and selected 51 films to compete in the official sections. The result is a stunning panorama of contemporary independent filmmaking that bears witness to a vibrant community off the commercial circuit.
There are also five parallel sections offering festivalgoers the chance to discover little-known work, as well as a film programme for kids, a seminar on film music, roundtables, professional meetings and a masterclass.
We've put together a packed week of activities to complement the Film Schools section, and the Hall Screen will once again be screening an original programme of films in a unique setting. It's great to be back.

L’Alternativa - Festival de Cinema Independent de Barcelona Awards 2010
Fiction Feature Award (6000€)
The Jury for the Official Feature Film Section at the 17th edition of l’Alternativa, Barcelona Independent Film Festival, made up of Julio Lamaña, Albert Plans and Lorenzo Vilches, gathered on 19 November 2010 and agreed unanimously to award the Festival’s Gran Premi to Viajo porque preciso, volto porque te amo (I Travel Because I Have to and Come Back Because I Love You) by Marcelo Gomes and Karim Aïnouz (Brazil), for its powerful lyrical force and for successfully realising a daring idea in both visual and narrative form.

The Jury also decided to award a Special Mention to Verano de Goliat (Summer of
Goliat) by Nicolás Pereda (Mexico – Canada – the Netherlands) for creating a bold film that speaks of the difficulty of understanding reality.

Feature Documentary Award (4000€)
The Jury for the Official Documentary Film Section at the 17th edition of l’Alternativa, Barcelona Independent Film Festival, made up of Anna Petrus, Javier Miranda and Elena Oroz agreed unanimously to award the Festival’s Gran Premi to Glubinka 35x45(Countryside 35x45) by Evgeny Solomin (Russia), for its keen balance between content and form when expressing three periods (past, present, future) in rural Russia, its lyrical and highly evocative images and its strikingly honest approach.
The Jury also decided unanimously to award a Special Mention to Les racines du
brouillard (If Fog Had Roots) by Dounia Bovet-Wolteche (Belgium), for its
evocative approach, combining home filmmaking and expressive lyricism to tell a story championing the value of oral memory as a way of passing on ideals.
Short Film Award (2500€)

The Jury for the Official Short Film Section at the 17th edition of l’Alternativa, Barcelona Independent Film Festival, made up of Montse Majench Pueyo, Lupe Pérez García and Antoni Pinent, agreed unanimously to award the Festival’s Gran Premi jointly to Time’s Up by Marie-Catherine Theiler and Jan Peters (Germany), for its energetic narrative, perfect integration of different techniques and original vision of time, and to Triumph of the Wild by Martha Colburn (the Netherlands), for its innovative use of animated collage, fast-paced musical and visual rhythm and inventive narrative.
In addition, the Jury decided to award a Special Mention to For Cultural Purposes Only by Sarah Wood (United Kingdom), for its testimonial power and subtle use of resources when telling a story of vanished images.
Audience Award Un monde pour soi (A World of One's Own) by Yann Sinic
(France).
