Renata Gąsiorowska’s animated film „Pussy” gets Dušan Vukotić Prize for the Best Student Film.

27th World Festival of Animated Film – Animafest Zagreb ended on Saturday with the award ceremony held in Cinema Europa. After extraordinary six days devoted to animation, with over 350 films in the programme and numerous side events, the time has come to present the awards to the best films and authors.

Student Film Competition and Croatian Film Competition jury consisting of Alberto Vázquez, Jana Jakoubek and Sandra Malenica decided to give Dušan Vukotić Award for the best student film to Polish film "Pussy" by Renata Gąsiorowska, made at the Polish National Film School in Lodz. Feminism has gone one level up. Actually feminism in this film is at it's right point - totally open, free, spontaneous, above all and in front of us in the most literal way. Talking about sexuality is still taboo, especially womens' sexuality. That's why this film is fresh, fun, sensitive and real. It is also fluent in storyline, simple in drawing, great in sound and animation. It is reminder that female 'body parts' also have the life of their own. At least in films. The jury awards the Dušan Vukotić award for best student film to the courageous and beautiful - Pussy by Renata Gąsiorowska – said the explanation.
