Tribeca Film Festival

  • Gunnar Jónsson in L'histoire du géant timide (2015)
    2015 Winner Jury Award
    • Best Narrative Feature
    • L'histoire du géant timide
    Jury Comment: "With its mixture of humor and pathos, this film captured our hearts. Beyond the deceptively small frame of a mismatched love story, the film deals with the issues of bigotry, loneliness, bullying, mental illness, and ultimately the triumph of the human spirit and the meaning of love."
  • Gunnar Jónsson in L'histoire du géant timide (2015)
    2015 Winner Jury Award
    • Best Screenplay for a Narrative Feature
    • L'histoire du géant timide
    Jury Comment: "The writer of this film is also the director, and is credited as one of the editors, and also performed the music, and runs the director's program at the National Film School of Denmark, leading us to wonder when he has time to go to the bathroom. His intricately designed, beautifully observed, and bravely conceived screenplay consistently defies expectations, avoids sentimentality, and never strikes a false note.
