Filmmakers
World Festival announces the winner of this year competition.
From almost 100 countries participating, 20 countries were
selected among the winners. The film festival chooses Dreams of
the Last Butterflies directed by
Zina
Brown from USA as the best film of the festival.
Dreams of the Last Butterflies is a live-action 'dark faerie
tale' short film with an urgent environmental message. A tale
about the loss of butterflies in our world, and why they are
disappearing, as told by the last Butterfly Queens themselves.
Combining otherworldly costumes, epic faerie-tale poetry,
cutting-edge cinematography, and a new song by electronic artist
Kai Altair, it features stunning performances by tribal belly
dancers, ballerinas, fire masters, contortionists, and a cast of
New York City's underground stars. Each Butterfly Queen
represents an endangered butterfly from around the world, and
together they enter human dreams hoping to save the last of
their kind.
Dedeh Kurniasih from Dewan Kreatif Rakyat (DKR), committee for
the event, said Spain, France, USA, Kosovo, Russia, Turkey,
Cambodia, India, Canada, Australia, Kenya, China, Finland,
Germany, Nepal, Switzerland, Italy, Vietnam, Belgium, Rwanda
were among the countries of winners.
