The Vision of Jiseok Award is sponsored by BHD Co., Ltd. (a Vietnamese film company) and the Kiat-Chareon Iamphungporn Foundation of Five Star Production, Thailand, on behalf of the friends of Kim Jiseok. It carries a cash prize of KRW 10,000,000 for the Asian film in the Vision section that captivates audiences.
Sakhya Byamba delivers a striking satire of pandemic-era panic, expertly juxtaposing Mongolia’s expansive landscapes against the cramped isolation inside a truck. Rather than portraying its characters as helpless victims, the film presents them as complex transgressors disrupting a corrupt system. With stunning cinematography and a rebellious visual perspective, we award the Vision of Jiseok Award to Zogsool.
