...communicate after being immobilized by a stroke won the director prize. Satrapi's beguiling autobiographical animation shared the Jury Prize (third place) with Reygadas' very demanding, even more rewarding story of a Mennonite family in Northern Mexico. The screenplay citation went to the Akim film, the story of three parent-child relationships that get sundered; and if the script has more coincidences and withheld identities than a whole season of an American soap opera, it certainly held the interest and provided a showcase for some handsome performances and a budding directorial talent...
