An Award Ceremony of a different kind

An Award Ceremony of a different kind took place this year for Oliver Goetzl from Gulofilm, Hamburg. For his magnificent film WHITE WOLVES - GHOSTS OF THE ARCTIC, he was awarded the WorldMediaFestivals 2020 Grand Prix. But how to honour him in times of social distancing? Without a stage, without live band, without dinner, without guests, without spotlight, without applause, without the song "Simply the Best". . without everything that usually bring the WorldMediaFestivals to life. . .

A meeting on a wonderful summer day at the banks of the river Elbe, the skyline of Hamburg in the background, chilled champagne, screeching seagulls, sparkling awards in the sun and a lot of good vibes - even with a face mask. The awards were handed over by Sara Chinbuah to the happy Grand-Prix winner Oliver Goetzl. There was a lot of laughing and chatting - and "Simply the Best" was played from the cell phone. Here are the pictures taken of this special moment :-)
