Special mention for The Pupil at the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival

Jury comment: “The film stands out for its sensitive and realistic portrayal of a serious subject that cannot — and should not — be overlooked. Its honest and nuanced approach brings attention to an issue that, unfortunately, remains painfully relevant. A Special Mention goes to “The Pupil.”

Special Jury Price at the Festival del Film Europeo in Italy

“For its ability to depict with great clarity the attributes of manipulation, supported by a consistent mise-en-scène and the intense effort of the two protagonists—among them Bart de Wilde, a remarkable teenage actor who is making his debut. The dangerous impulses at the core of the story are addressed without resorting to simple demonization, while supporting a profound consideration of the psychological trauma it generates,” reads the jury statement.
