This takes time and patience, especially when the process might turn, which life often do in the real world. And as it also does in the documentaries dealing with reality that we in the jury have seen. It was clear to us, that the filmmaker have the ability of getting close and intimate with their characters, so that we get see them not only as characters in a well-told story line, but we also get to understand them as complete human beings - in who they are outside the film. This tenderness and persistence of the directors point of view open up doors for a deeper truth, where we in the audience understand the mind-blowing complexity of both a friendship and relationship. This is a crucial truth about filmmaking - that one of the keys of creating a unique story, lies in the eyes of the story teller who is determining every frame and every sentiment of the film. For creating these beautiful, artistic and cinematic films with both high ambitions and extreme craftsmanship - is culminating in work that exceeds expectations. This year's Reel Talent Award goes to both Lea Glob and Camilla Nielsson."
