SIGNIS PRIZE ZIFF 2009

Special Commendations

1) With its sensitive portrayal of life and traditions in a simple community, this film shows the triumph of love and freedom of choice, truth and reconciliation, over corruption, materialism and abuse of power. This Special Commendation goes to the film MAH SAH SAH by Daniel Kamwa (Cameroun)

2) This film powerfully shows that evil is evil, and that revenge can never be justified by the inordinate use of religion. Through the wise words of a father, a son realizes that for the world to truly be at peace and freed from hatred, forgiveness must be given a chance. The second commendation goes to GO IN PEACE JAMIL by Omar Sharawi


SIGNIS PRIZE

An excellently made film that shows a courageous journey of two children forced to survive the cruelty and violence of the urban jungle in search of hope and dignity. This journey, driven by spiritual strength and childlike faith in providence, leads them to human solidarity that enables them to overcome all obstacles, to recognize the innate goodness in others, and finally to discover within themselves the power to see the world and their future with new eyes. The SIGNIS AWARD goes to…

IZULU LAMI (My secret Sky) by Madoda Ncayiyana



EAST AFRICA REGION TALENT AWARD

In Africa, disability, like all other « differences », is very often seen as a sickness and leaves those who are concerned as victims of prejudice and stigma by their society and families. This film which is an achievement in cinema language and techniques is a call to fight for human rights and to encourage support and perseverance to change people’s mind and to live with dignity.

Therefore the SIGNIS East African Award goes to

SUWI (Faith) by Cathrine Musola – ZAMBIA
