"Dinner for Few" by Nassos Vakalis (GR)

Picture
The jury said:
"Our choice is unanimous. We have agreed on an animated version of one of the oldest types of narrative in the world: The Fable about animals with human characteristics. Though in this case, these characteristic traits ought to disqualify them in the name of humanity: A behavior so greedy, totally selfish and globally destructive that it is a menace to the life of all.  
Here, the humour of the caricature, simplifying and therefore clarifying, plays together with music of a grand, symphonic calibre, proper for the well deserved end of this so-called civilization – and for the bleak, hopeless recognition of the fact, that it will resurrect in the same, unjust shape.
All this sums up as ten minutes of a perfectly integrated, circular narrative of wordless pictures, with a plain and clear moral, as it is proper for a fable. Although the pattern of the story is so universal, that you could call it mundane, we find it an interesting coincidence, that this demonstration of the outrageous inequality in our world – exactly this year – should have its origin in Greece.
As you all now suspect, winner of the Borge Ring Award 2015, and thus automatically qualified to be presented to the Oscar-Academy, is the Greek-American film ‘Dinner for few’, directed by Nassos Vakalis."
