Miro Remo’s ‘Better Go Mad in the Wild’ Triumphs at Karlovy Vary as Stellan Skarsgard Picks Up Crystal Globe
Miro Remo’s hybrid doc 'Better Go Mad in the Wild,’ 'Sand City' triumph at Karlovy Vary Film Festival as Stellan Skarsgard picks up Crystal Globe.
Jurors Nicolas Celis, Babak Jalali, Jessica Kiang, Jiří Mádl and Tuva Novotny called it “a funny valentine to the fading art of being true to yourself” and a “delightfully inventive documentary.” Despite living on a dilapidated farm, “in a world as mad as ours, [they] actually might be the sanest people on earth.” In an interesting twist, the best director award went to two helmers for their “impressive directorial statements”: Vytautas Katkus for gentle dramedy “ The Visitor ” and Nathan Ambrosioni for “Out of Love,” featuring Camille Cottin as a woman suddenly forced to take care of her sisters’ children after her disappearance. In the Proxima Competition, jurors Yulia Evina Bhara, Noaz Deshe, Nelson Carlos De Los Santos Arias and Marissa Frobes opted for “Sand City” by Mahde Hasan – also given $15,000 – where “cinema becomes a trembling map of the strange, abandoned, and intimate at the edge of sense.”
