PRIZE
- MARTHA
ARGERICH, EVENING TALKS
- Georges
Gachot & Idéale Audience,
France
- Mr
Peter Janecek, Chairman of the Student Jury, Vienna,
Austria
- Mr
Georges Gachot, Director of the awarded programme,
Zürich, Switzerland
Reason:
- When
describing this documentary "Martha Argerich, Evening
Talks" by Georges
- Gachot,
it would perhaps be more fitting to think of it as "A
Portrait of an Artist", an artist who was both
entertaining and endearing to the viewer from the
outset. The extreme honesty which she displayed was
uniquely refreshing, and was reflected by the
director´s approach. The boundaries often present
between the interviews and musical sections were
expertly merged creating an organic work which flowes
from start to finish. This work captured the very
essence of Martha Argerich, unfolding effortlessly
like her performances.
