The jury declared: \u201cwithout forsaking the luminosity of its formal and aesthetic aspects, the short slowly submerges us in a claustrophobic atmosphere to which the protagonist is forced to wake up as her class consciousness emerges\u201d. \r\nThe Grand Award of Spanish Cinema went to the documentary El soldao<\/em> (Alejandro Cabrera, Spain, 2023), of which it was said that \u201cthanks to its authenticity, this documentary focusing on the Spanish countryside, portrays with great care a search for memories, but also what stays and what\u2019s missing as time goes by\u201d.\r\n\r\nAs every year, the Mikeldi Awards were also handed out in the various categories: best fiction short film went to It Turns Blue (Abi mishavad)<\/em> (Shadi Karamroudi, 2023); the best animation short film to France\/Colombia co-production La perra<\/em> (Carla Melo, 2023); and best documentary short film to The Veiled City<\/em> (Natalie Cubides-Brady, 2023).\r\n\r\nThe names of the prizewinning short films were announced by the members of the Jury Panel for this section, which this year features the coordinator of the Cannes Festival\u2019s Short Film Corner Florian Fernandez; the director of the Yamagata International Documentary Film Festival (Japan) Haruka Hama; Bulgarian film critic and programmer Mariana Hristova; Basque director Estibaliz Urresola; and Galician director of animation, illustrator and drawing artist Alberto V\u00e1zquez.\r\n\r\nZINEBI is also one of the two State festivals on the list of European festivals which select a short film each year to compete in the EFA (European Film Awards). The International Jury at this year\u2019s ZINEBI festival chose the Croatian short film Valerija<\/em>, by Sara Jurin\u010di\u010d, as the European Film Awards 2024 Short Film Candidate.\r\n\r\n
OFFICIAL SECTION. INTERNATIONAL ZIFF \u2013 ZINEBI FIRST FILM COMPETITION<\/h6><\/div>\r\n\r\nTurning to the Official Section\u2019s largest prize \u2013 12,000 euros \u2013 for the best opera prima in the International ZIFF \u2013 ZINEBI First Film Competition, the winner was In the Rearview (Sk\u0105d dok\u0105d)<\/em>, by Maciek Hamela. \r\n\r\nThe Jury, composed of Colombian producer and director Diana Bustamante; the head of programming at Arsenal \u2013 Berlin Cinema and Videoart Institute Birgit Kohler; and Spanish filmmaker Roc\u00edo Mesa, unanimously decided to award the prize to this Polish\/French\/Ukrainian co-production in view of the \u201cexceptional power of its minimalistic approach to an international conflict, exploring horror from a humanistic perspective. We highlight the solid construction of the editing, which creates a poetic and touching portrait of war, free of exploitative images, that invites deep reflection. As the characters and the filmmaker drive away from the war, the audience travels to the heart of it.\u201d\r\n\r\nThe Youth Jury Award \u2013 ZIFF (University of the Basque Country \u2013 UPV\/EHU), 2,000 euros, went to Basque film Zarata<\/em>, by Tamara Garc\u00eda Iglesias. \r\n\r\n
OTHER AWARDS<\/h6><\/div>\r\n\r\nThe EiTB Audience Award, 3,000 euros, went to It Turns Blue (Abi mishavad)<\/em>, by Shadi Karamroudi (Iran, 2023), which also won the UNICEF Award, and so it stole the show at ZINEBI, with three prizes.\r\n\r\nThe FAS Cineclub Award of 2,000 euros for the best short film in the \u201cBertoko Begiradak \u2013 Views from the Basque Country\u201d section went to the animation short film Kusikozu<\/em>, by Aitor Irulegi Lopez.\r\n\r\nThe Festival\u2019s Closing Gala, led by Mar\u00eda Goiricelaya and Ane Pikaza (La Dram\u00e1tica Errante), will be this evening at 19:30 h in the Arriaga Theatre, featuring electronic pop group J Martina and contemporary dance company Compa\u00f1\u00eda X, and the short films which took the ZINEBI 65 Official prizes will be screened afterwards.\r\n\r\n
ZINEBI INDUSTRY AWARDS<\/h6><\/div>\r\n\r\nThis year ZINEBI, financed by the Institute of Cinematography and Audiovisual Arts (ICAA) with funds from NextGenerationEU, EITB MEDIA S.A.U.

F\u00e9lix, and produced by Roger Torras Mayneris (wknd) and Diana Toucedo Films.\r\n\r\nAs a new feature this year, ZINEBI Networking has bolstered its links to Madrid\u2019s ECAM school with the Impulso ECAM prize, a personalised advisory package for each project taking part. This year the Impulso ECAM Award \u2013 ZINEBI Networking 2023 goes to Inmersas en el Imserso, by Aitor Arruti.\r\n\r\nThis year ZINEBI also handed out the Aukera Awards, each worth 3,000 euros, to set up a short film project. The (H)EMEN Award went to Mi reina, by Irene Royo; the Aukera Creators Award and the Zineuskadi Internationalization Award Aukera went to Ezagutzen ditugun bekain guztiak<\/em>, by Marta Codesido and N\u00faria Ubach; and the Aukera Bizkaia Council Award for best project in Euskera will go to Gure gozamena<\/em>, by Amaia Chocarro.\r\n\r\n
