The Jury of the CST has awarded the VULCAN AWARD OF THE TECHNICAL ARTIST to:
Antoine HEBERLÉ, director of photography for the film GRIGRIS (directed by Mahamat-Saleh HAROUN), for a result showing remarkable finesse and humility, with the sole intention of serving the film, in conditions that we imagine were very difficult.
