Thank you so much with honouring my film "The Great White Whale" with this year's Grand Prize. All of us filmmakers are grateful that your unique Festival exists and we appreciate the hard work that you all do to run it so well. Thank you all so much.

A film is essentially a journey, and finding the right audience is its final destination. Winning at the Travel Film Festival with Komorebi felt exactly like that: arriving at the perfect place. This isn’t just a festival that screens movies; it’s a crossroads for storytellers who capture the soul and essence of the world. The recognition here means the world to me. A brilliantly curated event run by a team that truly understands the art of visual exploration. Thank you for this profound honor!
