Last week 's wonderful new doc FIGHTING DEMONS WITH DRAGONS took home the Silver Alexander in the Newcomers Competition at Thessaloniki Int. Documentary Film Festival, where it celebrated its world premiere - we are so delighted and can't wait for the film to meet even more lovely audiences all over the world!

Here is the jury's statement: "We would like to award a director for taking the hard challenge of telling a multi character story, creating with tenderness a both emotional and complex universe of teenagers in such a fragile turning point of their lives. With the talent and skills of a documentarian she is voicing from a very intimate perspective her protagonists with empathy and respect."
