“Justification Special Mention International Jury

The portrait of the foreign minister of the Swedish government is rather surprising, because it allows us to see not only international politics at work (with all its rules and intrigues), but also a conciliatory vision of the world. Seeing reality from the point of view of a woman of power, who tells herself about this power to reason, seemed very interesting to us. For these reasons the jury assigns a special mention to this film.

Motivazione Menzione Speciale Giuria Internazionale

Il ritratto della ministra degli esteri del governo svedese e piuttosto sorprendente, perché ci permette di vedere non solo la politica internazionale al lavoro (con tutte le sue regole e i suoi intrighi), ma anche una visione conciliatrice del mondo. Vedere la realtà dal punto di vista di una donna de potere, che si dica di questo potere per ragionare, Ci e sembrato molto interessante. Per tali motivi la giuria assegna a questo film una menzione speciale.”

“In some works, the author’s unobtrusive approach makes sense, so in the documentary “The Feminister” (2018 | ★★★★) by the Swedish Victor Nordensköld, the unobtrusive director’s decisions transform the protagonist into a real carrier of the film, allowing viewer identification. Skilfully combining close-ups in emphasizing emotional reactions and medium, in case of need for additional context, the film is an example of the director’s mastery of the material in order to successfully portray his protagonist, Swedish Foreign Minister Margot Wallström. ”
