RIFF – Rome Independent Film Festival announced the award winners of its 21st edition, with Best International Film going to Alice by Krystin Ver Linden and the Award for Best Italian Film went to Un Mondo Fantastico (A Fantastic World) by Michele Rovini.
Alice won for being “A very original story, shot with great skill; a beautiful photography that perfectly depicts people and places, always at the director’s disposal. A “pulp” style combined with a cruel tale, but still told with extreme sensitivity, and… what a soundtrack!!!”
Un Mondo Fantastico is described as “A good example of independent cinema, the one made without an overly technical approach. The perfect example of an interesting storyline, no matter how told.”
The Award for Best Italian Documentary went to Il Paese delle Persone Integre by Christian Carmosino Mereu and the Award for Best International Documentary went to Moruroa Papa by Paul Manate Raoux.
