Winner of The Lyudmila Feyginova Award for Best Editing

For its capacity to articulate a mosaic of memories and feelings, for creating a singular film experience through sound, image and movement, for finding a distinct rythm to transport the viewer to another time and space The Lyudmila Feyginova Award for Best Editing goes to Lazaro Lemus for The Many Deaths of Aristides (Lazaro Lemus, Cuba, 2020).

The Many Deaths of Aristides

Arístides died of a gunshot when he was 19 years old, while he was doing his Military Service in the Cuban Navy. He was shot in the chest at close range by the soldier who was supposed to relieve him in duty, with a Makarov PM handgun made in USSR. There are no images of him; just a letter he wrote to his sister a few hours before dying, whose reply never came to be.
