Here below you find the justification of the prize:

The Jury’s special prize goes to:

An Undeniable Voice

Directed by Price Aran Produced by Sharon Stone

The film, which is the first cinematographic work by the well known American photographer Price Arana, is produced  –as a testimony of her notable social and civil commitment- by Sharon Stone.  It tells the story of the terrible experience,  lasting more than 2 years, of a young polish jew called Szlamek Rzeznik who was interned  in the nazi lager of Deblin  and Czestochowa.  He was  one of the few children who survived and in 1947 he emigrated to America, where he took the name Samuel Harris.  As an adult, and a successful professional in Chicago, he published his story in a book ‘Samuel, the child Surviver of the holocaust’, which indirectly inspired this film.

With this special prize the jury  wishes to pay homage to a generous and educational work which fights against all forms of rascism, violence against children and terrible senseless events which don’t just belong to the past but which are scandalously still present in todays world.
