The short animated film "Life with an Idiot" by Theodore Ushev won the best film award at the Beijing International Short Film Festival. The animator announced the news on his Facebook profile.
"I am very happy because it is rare for an animated film to win the grand prize at a festival where films of all genres compete," Ushev wrote. The animator says that he is especially happy that the award was presented by a jury chaired by famous Ukrainian director Sergei Loznitsa.
The film is based on a novel of the same name by Victor Erofeyev. It tells the story of Vladimir, accused by the authorities of not working hard enough and forced to live with an idiot as punishment. The idiot can only say one thing: "ooh."
