The award in the CineMasters competition is the main prize of FILMFEST MÜNCHEN and is sponsored by long-time partners ARRI. Producer Philipp Kreuzer, actress Sibel Kekilli and director Riley Stearns selected the winning film from the ten entries in the competition and they chose BROKER by Hirokazu Kore-eda as Best International Film:
"'Thank you for being born.' — A single sentence that touches the audience in such a way that entire films rarely can. When every character, no matter how small or large, is intricately layered, simultaneously fractured and in the end so lovingly developed, that’s cinema. Great cinema.
This film is a journey. One filled with longings, with decisions, with detours. Sometimes it is precisely these detours that we must take in life to find ourselves and each other. And we found a bit of ourselves in this film. The jury would like to award the ARRI Award for best international film in the CineMasters competition to BROKER."
