The Copenhagen International Documnetary Festival was packed with great work this year, but only six could be awarded with the prizes. No doubt it was a tough call considering the high calibre in each category. You may remember only last week we announced Pink Saris by Kim Longinotto as a winner of the Special Jury Prize at Sheffield Doc/Fest. Longinotto's work has impressed the judges once again being presented with an award in the Amnesty category for her skillful portrayal of India's social problems through a personal story.
The winners of each category are:
DOX:AWARD
