Jury statement: We are honoring a film that splendidly celebrates the non-repeatability of the present moment. An equally concise and immersive study of time and light, color and material, which ties in with historical film experiments and yet speaks its own language with echoes of the recent past—a past in which the metropolis is at a standstill as a topos of breathtaking modernity, while we follow the poetry of small movements. The Austrian Short Film Award goes to NYC RGB by Viktoria Schmid.
