‘The Flats’ And ‘No Other Land’ Land Big Honors at CPH:DOX


'The Flats' and 'No Other Land' are among the films to win major prizes at the CPH:DOX festival in Copenhagen.

Coming like a conversation shouted through one of those locked gates, our winning film is a collective portrait of several proud, funny, resourceful individuals, who would be willing to die for their community but who choose each day the harder, braver and more hopeful option of living for it instead.” The jury, made up of Jessica Kiang, Nataša Urban, Monica Hellström, Rémi Bohnhomme, and Carla Gutiérrez, awarded a Special Mention to Two Strangers Trying Not to Kill Each Other, directed by Jacob Perlmutter & Manon Ouimet. “In a world where a government is committing environmental crimes against its citizens in the most corrupt cynical way, where communities are brutality neglected, an extraordinary courageous woman fights for justice against giant forces, where her life is at stake,” wrote the jury, composed of Lena Karbe, Sigal Yehuda, and Maria Bäck.
