Nominacje do IDA Documentary Awards

Znane są już nominacje do IDA Documentary Awards. W gronie dostrzeżonych są polskie produkcje/koprodukcje.

W tym roku IDA otrzymała ponad 550 zgłoszeń we wszystkich kategoriach z 85 krajów, co stanowi wzrost w porównaniu z ubiegłym rokiem pod względem łącznej liczby reprezentowanych krajów. Zgłoszenia do IDA Documentary Awards zostały ocenione przez jury złożone z kilkudziesięciu profesjonalistów z branży dokumentalnej z całego świata.

W gronie nominowanych znalazły się dwie polskie produkcje/koprodukcje. W kategorii Najlepsze Zdjęcia nominację zdobyli Natalia Pietsch i Grzegorz Piekarski za film „Miasto, które wyjechało”. To jeden z najczęściej nagradzanych polskich dokumentów pełnometrażowych tego roku, laureat prestiżowego festiwalu Visions du Réel oraz zdobywca Wielkiego Jantara za najlepszy debiut dokumentalny na festiwalu Młodzi i Film. W swoim debiutanckim filmie reżyserzy portretują społeczność, która w wyniku autorytarnej decyzji władz musi opuścić rodzinne Hasankeyf i przeprowadzić się do bezdusznego blokowiska. To nie tylko zmiana miejsca zamieszkania, ale traumatyczne doświadczenie wykorzenienia i utraty tożsamości. W kategorii Muzyka nominację zdobył Sam Slater za film „Divia”, który jest koprodukcją Ukrainy, Polski i Holandii.
