To read winners at the official site please go here. Can deny my surprise that a film that calls my attention won the top award, but can’t forget that most of the films in this section are always very strange for my taste. Let’s hope that since top winner is an American film will not be that much strange.
Let's close post with visually magnificent photo from the top winner Take Shelter.
