The film beat 93 others to take the Gold BUSHO, which includes a EUR 1,000 purse from the Ministry of Education and Culture.
Film director Ildikó Enyedi, who headed the Hungarian jury, said, "The film explores the almost unapproachable depth of a child's soul in a disciplined, strict and highly sensitive cinematic language."
The Silver BUSHO was won by Clement Michel's film, Baby. The 17-minute short follows the difficulties of an ordinary man who slowly realises that fatherhood has brought a new dimension to his life.
The Bronze BUSHO went to the Hungarian directors Zoltán Gayer and Péter Molnár for The Caroussel Rite, a short that was acknowledged at Hungarian Film Week too.
An award for the source of the most good submissions went to the Zini Film School in Serbia.
BUSHO screened films outside of the capital this year too. The city of Magyarkanizsa acknowledged Géza Tóth's film Mama with an award. The city of Szolnok presented a prize for Péter Márk Varga's film Inner Window.
