We want to thank the people in the student jury; Demetri Papadopoulos, Ersi Spathopoulou and Maria Kontogiorgou and the people representing the Post Graduate Student Jury!
From the jury's award note:

"A beautifully made stop motion animation film about a man suffering from a social phobia and his quest for . . . milk.
A smart script with a taste of black humor and an interesting ending. Amazing facial expressions on the puppet."You can read the full award list here at Athens Animfest homepage!
