Content
“Brown Family – Part 5: Costume Day”. A politically incorrect mini-comedy series on YouTube cheekily and satirically handles the topic of right-wing extremism. Two neo-Nazis in their Nazi appartment between overflowing ashtrays, beer bottles and pizza cartons, suddenly have to look after the six-year-old black daughter of one of them. Lara’s disarming ingenuousness shows just how thin and brittle the right-wing ideologies of the two are. When it is Costume Day in Lara’s school, she looks for a very special model for her fancy dress.

Excerpt from the jury’s statement
Humorous, subtle, plays with clichés – splendid.
