The Winners

The success-driven element of today's society expresses itself in a growing phenomenon: award ceremonies. It seems like winning an award is no longer an unusual thing, because there are so many people and institutions that enjoy and make business with the hierarchy or fetish that usually comes along with awards. Based on a research on the nature of award ceremonies and winners, this documentary aims to depict the backstage, the making, and the consequences of these emotional moments that seem to be unique but as the film reveals are actually the result of serial production.
