The film Southern Forest Land, directed by Nguyen Quang Dung, premiered from October 13 to November 25, reaching nearly 140 billion VND in revenue (according to Box Office Vietnam), but still had nothing at the Vietnam Film Festival.

Southern Forest Land is also a movie that has caused a lot of controversy in public opinion about its historical elements. The fact that the film was selected as one of 16 works competing in the Feature Film category at this year's Vietnam Film Festival also created a wave in public opinion.

Previously, at the press conference of the 23rd Vietnam Film Festival in Hanoi, the press asked: "The participating feature films, including the film Southern Forest Land, have many mixed opinions, this affects What happens to the film's judging results and competition?".

Mr. Vi Kien Thanh, Director of the Cinema Department, Head of the Festival Organizing Committee, replied: "The festival's awards will be based on the results and evaluation of the Council and the Jury. As for the opinion of the public, The audience's opinions will be expressed in the audience-voted award for their favorite film."

On the evening of November 25, the closing and awarding ceremony of the 23rd Vietnam Film Festival took place. As a result, Brilliant Ashes won big in 5 important categories including: Golden Lotus, feature film; Outstanding supporting actor in a feature film (Le Cong Hoang); Best director of a feature film (Bui Thac Chuyen); Best cinematography for a feature film (Nguyen K'Linh) and best music for a feature film (Ton That An).

Meanwhile, Southern Forest Land and Mrs. Nu's House were empty-handed despite achieving high revenue.

Contact People's Artist Dao Ba Son - Head of the jury of the feature film genre - to answer questions related to the results of the 23rd Vietnam Film Festival. This person frankly answered the audience's arguments about non-photo films. has no effect on the jury's assessment and does not cause the jury any pressure.

He said that when the Organizing Committee included the film Southern Forest Land in the 23rd Vietnam Film Festival, the jury's job was to judge equally as other films, with no distinction between private films or state films.

However, each issue and component in the film will be thoroughly dissected by the judges, not for anything else.

According to Mr. Son, the jury graded the film and voted based on 4 criteria: The film has good content, ideology and art; Creativity in storytelling and cinematic language; The work must be humane, must protect humanity, which is the beauty of the Vietnamese soul and Vietnamese people, and finally, the work must be rich in Vietnamese cultural identity.

People's Artist Dao Ba Son also said that he and the jury of the 23rd Vietnam Film Festival evaluated the film Southern Forest Land as a work with a very elaborate investment in setting the scene, filming, music, and design. Next, staging, post-production...

"The film has a good investment, the filmmakers did it very meticulously and carefully, but there are also other films with good investments like Em and Trinh. Furthermore, the meticulousness is not necessarily a perfect thing, achieving criteria for judging," Mr. Son said.

Regarding the reason why the film Brilliant Ashes received 5 awards at the same time and the evaluation of this work, People's Artist Dao Ba Son said that the film Brilliant Ashes brings viewers high authenticity.

It is a very pitiful story of two couples as the movie audience already knows. But the filmmakers have consistently shown the content from filming, acting to setting... Everything is very realistic, following the characters and story.
