I have the impression that there are many women directors with honors from the independent juries which is just great!
So the fest is over and for me came and went too fast. Let's hope that next year we will be surprised with many movies, just as it happened this year with winners that definitively are must be seen for me, even if they were not honored, but they did. Great!
Danke schön Berlinale.
