Le Jour a Vaincu la Nuit (The Day Has Conquered the Night) Jean-Gabriel PĂŠriot (France)
Berkisah tentang delapan narapidana yang mengungkapkan mimpi dan suasana hati yang sedang mereka alami. Pendekatan dokumenter ini sangat sederhana, dengan menampatkan subyek di hadapan kamera untuk mengungkapkan suasana hati dan mimpi mereka, namun sang sutradara menghadirkan emosi para narapidana yang diwakili dan melalui irama musik. Bentuk bidikan yang sederhana dalam merekam para napi tersebut menggambarkan ekspresi visual dari kejenuhan para napi yang berada di dalam penjara. -Akbar Yumni
The Day Has Conquered the Night chronicled the dreams and aspirations of eight inmates in a prison somewhere in France. The approach of this documentary is very simple. The filmmaker let the inmates talk about whatever they want to the camera. Emotions then are emphasized through various melodies of music that accompany their confession. Soon all these audiovisual cues lead to one thing: repetition, that is emblematic of the boredom felt by the inmates of the life they lead behind prison bars. -Akbar Yumni
