Jury Comments: "We thought Hotel Gramercy Park was a highly entertaining and moving story about a New York family and a New York institution coming to terms with a changing city."

Project: "She Wants to Be a Matador"

Project: "$Free99"

"Elephant Garden captured the "inner-life" of a beautiful young girl; her confusion as she becomes a young adult. Wonderful visual story telling and the performance of Kelley Mack is stellar."

Jury Comments: "In a relentless pursuit of peace, the women of Liberia show us how community, motherly love, and perseverance can change the fate of a society. Pray the Devil Back to Hell is a reminder that we have the power to say 'Enough!' to the atrocities of our world."

Jury Comments: "Mandatory Service, a perspective of war and conflict from participants themselves. The Israeli's empathy for the Palestinians is not a perspective we glimpse too often in Western media."

Jury Comments: "For having the bravery to tell a seemingly typical story that ends up revealing bold and difficult truths."

Jury Comments: "The Caller superbly uses its New York locations, from the sleek mid-town high-rises to the desolate Brooklyn Bridge piers, to create a chilling and finally stirring suspense movie: an unusual thriller whose mysterious plot finally exposes the mysteries of the heart."

Jury Comments: "For its mesmerizing exploration of loneliness and alienation through masterful reexamination of the vampire myth."

Jury Comments: "New Boy took us on a complete emotional journey. It was moving, funny, and powerful."
