Below is a link to a short film that won a $100,000 prize in a competition put on by LG Electronics.
It's on this blog because this film, Nuit blanche (or white night) was produced by my cousin's daughter Stephanie and directed by her boyfriend Arev.
Hundreds of entries were submitted in four categories. The winners in each category then competed for the $100,000 grand prize - which Nuit Blanche won in the narrative category.
This is a huge victory for these two in a very competitive field. They plan to put the prize money towards their next film. The National Film Board of Canada has actually approached to collaborate with them. This is wonderful news for these two striving for success in an extremely competitive and tight industry.
Hope you enjoy this very artsy film with wonderful special effects.

Beautifully made and produced and yes, very arty, Leslie. The water and glass effects were really effective. All credit to those involved in making it too!
I thought it was visually stunning.
The special affects were very well done, the water,the glass/liquid spill, B). My isp is moving slow this evening, so I got to watch in slow motion which is very cool indeed. Congratulations to them on a well deserved award!
Technology truly has become one with our daily lives, and I am fairly confident when I say that we have passed the point of no return in our relationship with technology.
I don't mean this in a bad way, of course! Ethical concerns aside... I just hope that as the price of memory drops, the possibility of copying our brains onto a digital medium becomes a true reality. It's one of the things I really wish I could see in my lifetime.
