Special Mention
2020 - from the Kurzfilmtage Winterthur :
«One short film can say more than 1000 words. For a precise human study and the filmmakers' cinematic courage to silently express the feelings of a young woman with strong metaphorical images, we honour "Code of Conduct" and look forward to seeing more of Nora Longatti's and Olivia Frey's explorations of our present-daysociety.»
