thank you so much to Młode Horyzonty It is an incredible honor!! ✨✨

🏆 Jury European Children's Film Association w składzie: Mariella Harpelunde Jensen, Agata Hofelmajer-Roś, Liviana Lunetto przyznało nagrodę filmowi „Kim jest Julian?" (reż. Louise Bagnall, Guillaume Lorin, Mark Mullery).

💬 (...) Film z wielką wrażliwością podchodzi do dzieci i wyborów dokonywanych przez bohaterów, szanując ich prawo do decydowania we własnym tempie. Starannie wykonana animacja 2D stanowi wizualną poezję, która współgra z postaciami. Doceniamy delikatny, miękki styl rysunku, odzwierciedlający charakter głównego bohatera.

🇬🇧 The European Children's Film Association jury, consisting of Mariella Harpelunde Jensen, Agata Hofelmajer-Roś, Liviana Lunetto, awarded the film “Julián” (dir. Louise Bagnall, Guillaume Lorin, Mark Mullery).

With a near 180-year-old act of kindness still echoing through time to lend to the theme of the film, Moore hopes that Kindred Spirits will live up to the connection between the Irish and Native American people and also provide some all too rare representation.
