“Still Recording” got a special mention from the Jury of Jihlava International Documentary Film Festival. The film was screened on Monday in the section of “A testimony on politics”.

The Jury’s statement: The jury would like to award the special mention to the film, Still Recording. The image provides protection against lies and the course of time. The film is exceptional not only in depicting a war wrecking the heart of the civilised world, but also in trying to capture what can be seen as a foolish effort to imbue the war reality with the touch of everyday life: a person running through the ruins, children painting the fence in different colours, a recording studio in a city under siege, sunrise before bomb runs. A rough and, at the same time, poetic film, paid for by the lives of its makers.
