I EXPECT EXCELLENT STORYTELLING FROM YDA

A word from Tony Petersen

“To my perception the YDA is the most valuable award for new talent worldwide.

There will definetely be some VR around this year, but it is very difficult to show on a cinema-screen. Interactive, maybe, but mostly i expect excellent storytelling.

In todays world communication for social issues has become more and more relevant. So it is good to give it special recognition.”
