The Hamburg Producer Award International Cinema Co-Productions goes to the producer of Fabian Driehorst (Fabian&Fred) for the international co-production with Spain SULTANA'S DREAM (director: Isabel Herguera, screenplay: Isabel Herguera, Gianmarco Serra). The jury (Britta Imdahl, acting agent; Martin Langer, cinematographer; Malika Musaeva, director) was carried away by the poetic dream and the artful realisation of the animated film: “Isabel Herguera adheres to cinematic rules and at the same time breaks them. A special experience. More than a film.”

The FFHH23 Audience Award, endowed with 5,000 Euros, donated by the Hapag-Lloyd Foundation for the audience favourite of the festival goes to HEAVEN CAN WAIT – WE LIVE NOW by Sven Halfar.
