Winners revealed in Generation 14plus strand of the Berlinale.
Latvia’s Mellow Mud (Es esmu šeit) has won the Crystal Bear for Best Film in the Generation 14plus strand of the Berlin Film Festival (Feb 11-21), as voted by the ‘youth jury’.
The feature debut of Latvian director Renārs Vimba received its world premiere in the youth strand of the Berlinale and centres on a 17-year-old girl and her little brother who keep the death of their grandmother secret in an attempt not to lose their home.
Mellow Mud was acquired by sales outfit Pluto Film ahead of the festival and introduced to buyers at the Efm.
The jury said of the feature: “We were particularly impressed by a film that managed to create powerful and expressive images in spite of its spare dialogue and understated performances.

Berlinale receives record number of submissions.
A total of 63 feature-length and short films produced or co-produced in 35 countries have been invited to participate in the two Berlinale (Feb 11-21) competitions Generation Kplus and Generation 14plus.
The programme, aimed at children and youths, was selected from around 2,000 feature-length and short films submitted to Generation this year, which is more than in any year previously.
The selected films shed light on and challenge the nature of contradictions such as being child-like and being an adult, what is forbidden and what is permitted or the difference between subjective and objective reality.
“Young people world-wide are constantly confronted by dystopic realities not of their own making,” said Maryanne Redpath, head of Generation. “In the diverse films of this year’s programme we see them taking matters into their own hands.”
