Shanghai Film Fest’s second-place film honor, the Jury Grand Prix, was awarded to the Argentinian drama Adult, directed by Mariano Gonzalez.
The film tells the story of a teenage boy who is forced to fend for himself when his father goes mysteriously absent.
“A remarkable film that reveals with urgency, tension and truth, the social degradation of a country, from the eyes of a teenager who must understand how to deal with adults,” the jury said as Gonzalez received his trophy.
