Greater, Greatest!

Dopo aver visionato i film finalisti, Spike Lee in persona ha scelto "Greater-defeating AIDS" come miglior documentario del Babelgum Online Film Festival! La premiazione si è svolta ieri sera in un locale di Cannes, situato sul celebre Boulevard de la Croisette, in concomitanza con il Festival del Cinema di Cannes. Qui potete vedere il video della premiazione ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzECytxYqCY ).

Ecco invece la recensione scritta dallo staff di Babelgum a proposito di "Greater":

This is billed as a non-documentary and watching the way it pulls together various stories about a group of Ugandan women who are HIV positive, we soon realise that we're seeing life there in a way we might not in the mainstream. Inspiring characters who are full of a zest for life tell us their stories, show us their dances and it feels by the end as though the filmmaker has been the vehicle by which we enter this particular world, rather than the person telling us how to perceive it.
