"The Gold Hugo goes to Vahid Jalilvand's No Date, No Signature (Iran) for the austere beauty of its imagery and the satisfying complexity with which this assured second feature explores dilemmas of guilt and grief in a medical examiner who may or may not have accidentally killed a small boy."
"For its methodical exploration of the unspeakable ethical quandaries triggered by shocking tragedy, and its complex and systematic examination of issues of privilege (and lack thereof), guilt and culpability."
"The jury was really moved by the stories of three women in contemporary Teheran in Vahid Jalivand's s first feature film Wednesday, May 9th. Very strong acting and a beautifully woven structure - delivered a really strong film with many layers to be explored."
