regime. made the best of both was not allowed to travel to and so he was a represented at the press conference an empty chair. and w.'s i mean a safe school rocks 18 competition. films and sends us their predictions about so which might win a golden bat well i've seen a lot of great films during this festival but my tip for the golden bear would have to be the iranian film there is no evil that takes on the issue of the death penalty in iran and the psychological toll that it takes on the executioners there that's why filmmaker mohammad resolutely from iran he was not able to actually make the premiere because he's not allowed to leave iran he was banned from making films but he went ahead and did it anyway so i think that the courage of this filmmaker combined with the themes that the film takes on and this is a very political film festival i think that that might really give it a good foundation for the jury here but what really put it over the edge for me was
10:14 pm
just the incredible story telling i mean this is classical storytelling it's heartbreaking it's beautiful and for me i wouldn't mind seeing that again you know and i managed to talk to the director before before the festival it's an amazing story that he made this film in secret i think that's a great chance of winning i'd agree but i think there's one from the could have an edge on it and that's an american film never really sometimes always by lies ahead and now this is another political story it's a story of a 17 year old girl who wants to have an abortion without her parents' consent and crosses state lines with her cousin to do so it sounds like it's a very polemic movie but it definitely isn't it's more of a gentle coming of age story almost and i think the really the craftsmanship was shown in this film the delicacy at which she tells the story and maybe even the fact that it is a female director who did this film could it give could give it the edge come saturday night's awards. and i mean see this is d.w.
