Indie Pasion - Winners
Best Feature Film Award
Synopsis
A writer of celebrity articles returns to his tiny hometown in the extreme south of the world, after 45 years of having fled from there to save his life. In that place in Chilean Patagonia, where century-old trees rise above abandoned tombs and the sea drunk with rain conceals the roots of men, the writer will try to develop “salable” stories from that end-of-the-world zone. But when doing it surrounded by his old friends, he will face his past and leave his imposture. For the first time in his life he will be able to create a great novel in which all will become characters and himself … in a real artist.

Special Mention
Synopsis
Soledad Rosas, aged 23, from Argentina, arrives in Italy in 1997. She moves into a community squat in Turin where she meets a militant anarchist called Edoardo Massari with whom she has a brief but intense love story. On March 5, 1998, the pair are arrested and charged with acts of terrorism against the construction of a high-speed rail network. On March 23, Edoardo Massari is found dead in his prison cell. After much resistance, however, on July 11, Soledad is found dead in the bathroom of the house where she has been living under house arrest. In 2002, the Court of Cassation in Rome dropped the charge of subversion and terrorism due to lack of evidence.
Special Mention
