Jury's statements of the Swiss competition:

Coupling impressive camera movement with beautiful compositions, the cinematography in this film is not just aesthetically pleasing but a key narrator of the story as well. Stylistically, the imagery enhances the themes of love and conflict set amid the wild and forlorn French countryside.
