For her it was the primary prize (pause) and the silver trophies that mark one of the best course and enhancing by Javi Frutos. The determination of a jury chaired by Claudia Pieiro, who additionally highlighted 'Home', by lex Montoya, with the Special Jury Prize, with the screenplay prize for his adaptation of the graphic novel by Paco Roca and with the music prize signed by Fernando Velázquez, already 'Radical', by Christopher Zalla, because the Ibero-American movie of the lately concluded version.

As issues are, 'Second prize' begins step one in what, every little thing signifies, goes to be a season of his possession. The movie is many issues on the identical time and all of them, just like the hours of the clock, damage. On paper it’s merely the essentially convulsive story of the recording of an album that’s precisely as convulsive. We discuss 'Per week in a bus engine, an LP with the form and gesture of a portrait of a whole era. But because it progresses, 'Second prize'it’s made and unmade within the spectator's gaze because the patterned narration of a fable of development, as a legend of time, as a story of survival and, if crucial, as the one potential fable in regards to the very chance of fable. And rising.

'Second prize' It is a movie with the way of an occasion that, at occasions, explodes on the display screen in a cry of recognition. It is an previous generational cry and a brand new discovery. Everything without delay. And all this with out giving up the required and shared expertise of the frequent.

Of all of the Spanish productions, no less than 4 are there to find out a very good a part of the yr: 'Home'by Lex Montoya, who adapts Paco Roca's graphic novel with style, tact and a way of depth; 'The little loves', by Celia Rico, who gained the award for greatest supporting actress for the big Adriana Ozores; 'Nina', by Andrea Jaurrieta, which needed to accept the award given by the critics' jury, and the aforementioned Biznaga de Oro. They are all essential movies, with personal voice and that they acknowledge one another in a contest that’s more and more tighter on function.

For the remaining, the remainder of the winners fulfilled the uncomfortable activity of balancing themselves between right here and there attributable to their standing as Spanish and Ibero-American. It is truthful that the movie as well-intentioned as it’s orthodox 'Radical', by Christopher Zalla and starring star Eugenio Derbez, will win the Biznaga there. Although it’s a manufacturing offered at Sundance from two editions in the past, in January 2023. And the actress awards don’t deserve any reproach both. Lola Loves, by 'The wild lady', by the Cuban Aln Gonzlez, and the one granted to do a Luis Zahera by 'Pjaros', from Pau Dur, there may be Joaqun Furriel by 'Rest in peace', by the Argentinian Sebastin Borensztein (a movie that additionally acquired the point out for supporting actor for Gabriel Goity).
