Special Prize AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL AWARD |
LITTLE BOY RED by Pasquale Scimeca (Italy) Reasons: Underage exploitation and discrimination dealt with in the film with a poignant and clear realism are sadly still relevant issues today and proof of no space nor time boundaries. Rosso Malpelo is an adolescent condemned by violence, prejudice, poverty and by an unjust society whose life resembles the lives of many of his peers around the world who struggle against fate with little chances of avoiding it. Nonetheless the clear and desperate, negative reality is the focus and strength of the film with a pending tragic finale. The message conveyed by the film is that each and every individual must fight against child abuse and cooperate in order to grant human beings, especially children, their fundamental rights. |
