The Jury’s Statement:
“The films effectively break clichés and reach their enthusiastic target audience on the webpage and in guided tours. The techniques used are perfectly suited to communicating complicated content clearly and simply. That there is still room for such innovation and originality in the area of tourism films comes as a pleasant surprise.
Eight stories based on myths and legends originating from the Salzburg region that using elements of stop motion animation, originally and wittily call to mind the cheeky Monty Python films. They whet one’s appetite for more.”
