«I’m happy with our verdict, we loved the same movies of the competition and therefore we agreed on rewarding them, and that’s not usually granted for a jury. The level of movies selected by DOKer was of high profile. DOKer has selected many titles, thus giving voice to a cinema in which denunciation, hope, conflict, love, peace and revolt cohabit. A libertarian cinema that rejects the injustices of our world! The best Cinematography and Director: The Charro of Toluquilla — A passionate film, made by a mature author who, with neatness and superb style, depicts human tragedy, but also the desire of a man who wants to live despite suffering from a disease that is still a taboo.The Best Editing and Gran Prix: Becoming Who I Was — an epic movie, a moral film, a film dripping with grace and wisdom, it is a universal parable that, through its mysticism, gives us a message of peace and hope»
— Pietro Marcello (Italy)
