- 2005 Winner Prize of the Ecumenical JuryLA NEUVAINE succeeds in presenting simple faith with respect, acknowledging how difficult it is to believe in God in a secular world and in the aftermath of tragedy. When a young man making a pilgrimage of prayer for his dying grandmother encounters a doctor paralysed by anguish, the interaction leads not to miracles or conversion but to kindness and deep possibilities for hope.
- 2005 Winner Youth Jury Award - "Environment Is Quality of Life" PrizeThrough his two protagonists he contrasts two worlds and two ways of life. On one side, Jeanne is disillusioned by atmosphere of death which follows her and by the austerity of the town. On the other, François, educated by his grandmother, maintains all his religious values and the simplicity linked to his native town. Nature plays a great role in this story. It represents the peace of spirit, the calm that the characters look for and that accompanies them in their pain.
