Jukka Kärkkäinen’s The Beauty of Errors continued its festival circuit this week at the Thessaloniki International Documentary Festival, where it received a Special Mention in the reputable International Competition.
The jury explains the reasoning behind its decision:
“The director and his team activate sensitive antennas, revealing the love that lies in tiny moments, and in the hidden interstices of existential nothingness.”
Producer Juha Löppönen accepted the award and thanked the Festival and the jury on behalf of Jukka Kärkkäinen, the film’s director. As a token of appreciation and gratitude, he performed a rendition of Nikos Xilouris and Yannis Markopoulos’ legendary song “Hilia Miria Kimata,” featuring lyrics tailored to the city of Thessaloniki and the Festival.
