The Alice Award 2006
The German director Valeska Grisebach won for her film, Longing (Sehnsucht), which was described as a quiet devastating drama.

The jury’s motivation was:
“Longing is a strong emotion, and it is this emotion that Valeska Grisebach makes us feel and understand. She has described it in a surprisingly sharp and unsentimental way. Grisebach has the ability to tell neither too little nor too much, and to reach down into the minds of the audience, thus deeply touching them and raising important questions.”
The Alice Jury in 2006 was: Nicolas Bro Actor and playwright
Bro has left his mark on countless Danish films with his conspicuously good performances. He is also active in the theatre, for which he has written numerous plays. His latest effort as a film actor was as the predominant lead in Christoffer Boe’s Offscreen, which can well be said to be borne by Bro’s striking talent – and which he also filmed himself. |
